I hate eating in the sukkah because bugs and bees drive me crazy. Any tried and true tricks to keep them out? I’d really like to enjoy it more.

Most "bees" that come into the sukkah aren't real bees, they're wasps. Get one of these (or similar):

Also, check the area for nests.

We have yellow jackets not wasps. I can tell the difference.

This year Sukkos is end of October, so I'm really not expecting alot of bugs/bees, it will be much colder.
ETA - I don't know where you live... maybe you can get some hanging things with a scent that they don't like, I think I've seen them in home improvement stores.

They're a type of wasp. Which means that, unlike bees, they sting for reasons other than protecting the hive.
