Thank you. It drives me wild that "save the bees!" campaigns seem to be all about domesticated bees and not the mason bees, bumblebees, and other native species. Also drives me wild: when folks recommend planting invasive species because "they support pollinators." Yeah so do many native species; wtf do you think insects ate for millions of years before we showed up?
