I probably don't talk enough about our efforts to increase pollinator habitat here. Hopefully as the year progresses I can post some pictures of our work in this area. Thank you for your support!

Pollinators are some of the most essential species to our environment. However, flies, bees, moths, beetles, wasps, and butterflies are among the pollinators experiencing population declines due to habitat loss and reduced pollen and nectar sources.

Growing a pollinator garden with flowering plants is one simple way Illinois residents can make a meaningful environmental impact at home!

It is bee swarm season again. If you find them like this give me a shout and I'll relocate them to a safe spot and give them a new home. If not, they usually end up in the walls of someone's home/garage/barn and that's not a good thing. If they are already in your walls I would gladly come take a look, but will probably end up referring you to someone specializing in that type of removal. Thanks....have a great spring!
