20 May marks World Bee Day, an opportunity to celebrate the pollinators working hard in our yards to maintain a healthy ecosystem. While we undoubtedly know how important they are for pollinating plants, there are also several hidden jobs bees are doing in your garden that you may not know about.
This goes for all types of bees, with the likes of mining bees helping to aerate soil and specialist pollinators ensuring the production of berries for other wildlife to feed on, for example. The truth is, there are so many things these adorable insects are doing in our gardens that go unnoticed. But, without them, our gardens would be sparser and quieter.
