In summer, the Hitokotonushi Shrine in Ibaraki sets up on oasis for bees where they can safely collect water

some info on bees and wasps 

[coolmanfromthepast]

I’ve been stung by a carpenter bee.  They’re usually pretty chill.

And dirt daubers are bros.

It’s true you can pet Bumblebees

[espurrnential]

Bumblebees are very curious little fuzzballs

[putuksstuff]

Note: You don’t have to intend to piss off a Paper Wasp. SOmetimes they start making a hive between your screen door and main door so when you get home and open the screen door, it pisses them off. Admittedly it only stung me once as a kind of warning but I’ll be damned if that didn’t catch me off guard (it was my first time being stung and it freaked me out so much I flung my hand involuntarily and chucked my mail all over the ground)

The bumblebee was officially added to the endangered species list.

 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.

Could you give a source for this claim and specify which bumblebee you are talking about and where they live? Bumblebees are a category, not a species and I am not aware of any of them being on the endangered species list. Bumblebees definitely should be respected and encouraged, but to imply that such a massive category of bees is endangered is a bit click-batey.

All of your suggestions are good things to do in general, but its rather disingenuous to imply that I can plant flowers to help bees dying on a different continent. 

[viva-la-bees]

Reblogging again because this is a very good point ^

[sweetleafbees]

I can answer this! Just a couple weeks ago, the Rusty Patched Bumblebee was the first bee of the Continental US to enter the Endangered Species List. The RPB has been declining since the 90’s, and presently only about 10% of the population are estimated to remain (some pollinator organizations will pay for photographs of them, they have become so rare.) You can find information about the Rusty Patched Bumblebee at the Xerces Pollinator Society, by searching the blog @usgsbiml, or being a bookworm like me and flipping through Bumblebees of North America.
