 Please:

• Go plant an organic flower native to wherever you are

• Leave your “weeds” alone they probably aren’t hurting anything

• Stop using/buying Roundup and all other insecticides, herbicides, pesticides. 

• If you have a bee problem (which almost never happens) call a local beekeeper! They will remove them safely free of charge

• Bumblebees usually nest underground and just wanna be left alone! They won’t hurt you. To prevent destroying their habit during hibernation, avoid mowing yards until April or May. If you do mow, raise the blades to the highest setting

Please save my fat clumsy fuzzy friends I love them and they’re very good pollinators.

Also don’t freak about the ground hives. Bees that burrow will move, they only stay in that one spot for a season or two there is no reason to kill them off they will leave.

Also if by chance you somehow become covered in bees DON’T FREAK, the best way to get bees off you safely for you and the bees is to just jump a few inches in the air nothing hard just a little hop. The bees will fall right off you when you hit the ground. (Promptly moving away sqiftly from that spot help not be stung after doing this.)

Listen: protect the bees. They are literally necessary for our worldwide ecosystem. Don’t kill bees, don’t destroy their hives, etc. 

But it’s not all bees that are endangered, or even all bumblebees. It’s specifically the Rusty Patched bumblebee that is endangered. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/03/bumblebees-endangered-extinction-united-states/

Protect bees. Don’t be a fear monger. Thank you and good night.
