It’s almost spring! That means the bees come out. If you see a huge cluster of bees, call a beekeeper. Do not call a bee exterminator please. The bees are not hostile. They have no eggs or honey to defend when you see them like this.
They’re stopping for a quick break.
Please don’t spray them. Contact a beekeeper and they will come out and take them! Swarms will soon be popping up across the state! They’re just looking for new homes, let a beekeeper rehome them for you!
SAVE THE BEES!
(You can Google or search Facebook for beekeepers in your area.)
This is a honey bee. The pollen on her legs is from dandelions. Her tongue is sticking out due to what killed her that was on the dandelions. It’s spring, dandelions are the bees first food.
This bee is dead from weed killer spread on what we see as weeds, but what nature sees as food. Please don’t spray for weeds until you see the blackberries blooming. In this area, weeds, flowers and fruit trees are bees only source of food until middle of June. There are FAR more weeds than flowers or fruit trees, so it’s their only food source.
No bees, no food crops for us, and we all starve.

In the industrial ‘development’ I work in, they spray toxins on the grass and bushes quite often. I find bees all the time walking circles and I know they are neurologically damaged and will die.
The poisoning of this planet MUST STOP.
Note from a bee lover:
Just this year, not a single bee – and we used to be swarming with them every year. Planting will not help dead bees. Have to prevent all the ways they are being killed, which may include, uh, ‘geoengineering’ the sky.
THEY FIND THEIR WAY INTO OUR HOMES LOOKING FOR SAFETY
WHEN YOU FIND A BUMBLEYBEE THAT CAN’T FLY, FIRSTLY YOU CAN PICK THEM UP – THEY WILL NOT STING UNLESS YOU HURT THEM AND ARE SAFE TO HANDLE
SECONDLY, POP THEM IN A TUB IF THEY WILL LET GO OF YOUR WARM HAND
THIRDLY, MIX WARM WATER AN SUGAR TOGETHER AND HOLD SOME IN A TEASPOON INFRONT OF THEM TO THEIR FRONT LEGGIES
THEY WILL EXTEND THEIR PROBOSCIS (INBUILT CURLY STRAW) AND DRINK.
THEN TAKE THEM OUTSIDE, THEY WILL GROOM, MAYBE PEE ON YOU AND WILL FLY OFF
WHEN THEY ARE SAT UNABLE TO FLY AND STICK THEIR LEGGIES IN THE AIR IT’S BECAUSE THEY’RE VULNERABLE AND TRYING TO FLY.
THEY ARE COLD AND NEED ENERGY
DO NOT GIVE THEM HONEY
KEEP THEM WARM AN FEED THEM SUGAR WATER
THIS SAVES A LIFE
