🌼 Help a Tired Bumblebee This Summer 🐝

During the current warm and dry weather, you might spot a bumble or honey bee looking weak or struggling to fly. It may just need a little boost! 💛

The video shows a tired and frail bumble bee we found just outside our office, earlier today. We fed it a small amount of sugar water and within minute wonderful little thing was back on its feet and flew away, to carry on with its important pollinating duties.

If you find one resting or seeming lethargic, you can offer a simple sugar-water solution to help it recover:

✨ How to Help:

✔️ Mix 2 parts white granulated sugar with 1 part water (e.g., 2 tsp sugar + 1 tsp water)

✔️ Place a few drops on a small spoon, flower petal, or bottle cap

✔️ Let the bee drink and rest – never force it

✔️ Do not leave sugar water out in the open – it’s only for one-time emergency help

⚠️ Important: Never use brown sugar, honey, or artificial sweeteners – these can harm bees.

Let’s all do our part to protect our precious pollinators 🌍🐝 #pestlicns #SaveTheBees #PollinatorPower #BumblebeeCare
