Bees are necessary for the pollination of flowers to help keep our food supplies robust and the natural world thriving. With the bee population declining, there are small things a backyard gardener can do to help protect the insects. The biggest thing you can do is to make your yard an insecticide-free zone -- employ organic methods to control invasive species whenever possible. Since bees need a safe habitat, bundle twigs and dried brush together and place it in a corner of the yard; the bees will make it home and will pollinate your garden at the same time.
