If they become extinct the in six years so do we so we need action now, plant some flowers in your garden to attract them, and please if you get a bee in your home try and catch it and let it go or guide it out the door or window

I jsut had the the biggest, fattest bumble bee in my house this morning, normally it would have been squashed with a paper but i remember watching that about the honey bees, instead of getting squashed the paper guided it out with me on tenderhooks, terrified of getting stung, eek i dont like them very much. So the honey bees have just saved a bumble bee lol!

I rarely kill anything except maybe wasps if I can't catch them. I try to capture everything and just let it go outside.

We've got a honey farm just outside Scarborough and I also know a few people who have hives so if anyone wants any honey - come to Scarborough - there's loads here. :clapping:
