Bees are one of the most important pollinators in the world. They play a huge role in supporting humans. Pollinators maintain genetic diversity, boost biodiversity, help plants reproduce, increase fruit yields and enable the dispersal of species into new regions. This means that they support fauna and flora at each level of the food chain.
Although many of us think they are a nuisance, every third bite of food we take is made possible thanks to bees. Which is why they need our help. Since the 90’s, the worldwide bee population has been dramatically declining. There are many possible reasons for this decline, but the main reason is the usage of pesticides.
These ancient insects are so vital for the earth that if they were to become extinct, hundreds of foods would be completely eradicated. The people at Any Pest created this infographic that gives us all the details on the bee population decline and also offers some helpful tips that can allow us to support these clever pollinators. Let’s take a look!
