Synopsis
A complete action plan to protect bees, wasps, butterflies, moths, flies, and some beetles by providing flowering habitat and nesting sites., With the recent decline of the European honey bee, it is more important than ever to encourage the activity of other native pollinators to keep your flowers beautiful and your grains and produce plentiful. In Attracting Native Pollinators , you'll find ideas for building nesting structures and creating a welcoming habitat for an array of diverse pollinators that includes not only bees, but butterflies, moths, and more. Take action and protect North America's food supply for the future, while at the same time enjoying a happily bustling landscape.

  • Excellent guide for anyone who wants to make a difference in Nature.

    This book was purchased for a 14 yr old who loves birds, bees, butterflies and the nature around her. She is planting any obtainable patch of soil and making a viable pollination garden for the creatures of the Earth. When I discovered this book, I knew it was exactly what she would benefit from and I am very pleased with the result. Thank you.
