“Another type of creature
that has suffered greatly from habitat loss is the bumblebee and other
“solitary” bees—the bees that were pollinating America’s flowering plants for
thousands of years before Europeans introduced the honeybee to [the] continent.
You can help native bees by either building or buying a bumblebee “house” and
establishing it in a suitable location. … some plans for a simple bumblebee
house [are available at www.allaboutwildlife.com],
[or] an internet search will turn up more, as well as more information about
these important and fascinating creatures.”
