Native Pollinators
Público·3 miembros
The invasive European honey bee does not need to be saved. They can be found on every continent except Antarctica. Our native pollinators need to be saved! This includes our bumble bees, sweat bees, leafcutter bees, mining bees and so many more. Plant more native pollinator plants for these beauties and for other native pollinators like our wasps, beetles, flies, moths and butterflies.

Native Pollinators: Nature’s Unsung Heroes
When people think of pollinators, honeybees often come to mind. Yet, native pollinators—including bumblebees, solitary bees, butterflies, moths, beetles, and even certain birds—play an equally crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and ensuring agricultural productivity. These species have evolved alongside local plants, making them exceptionally efficient at pollination.
Why Native Pollinators Matter
Native pollinators provide unique ecological services:
Crop Productivity: Many fruits, vegetables, and nuts rely on pollination by native species.
Biodiversity Support: They maintain the health of wild plant communities, sustaining entire ecosystems.

Thank you, Soniya. The honey bee is not native. They are an invasive species and can be found on every continent except Antarctica. Needless to say, they do not need to be saved. Our native bees, like the bumble bee, are the ones that need the saving. Bumble bees are crucial for pollinating blueberries, eggplant, peppers, tomatoes and so much more because they are perform buzz pollination. The European honey bee cannot do this. Plant more native pollinator plants!
