Stinky smells will deter them. I have camped most of my life and when I camp in a region with bears I use Raid or Black Flag around my camp and spray my tent as well. I don't get bears nor bugs. I know it works because I have stayed in camps where bears freely roam and would break into camps when they smelled food.
