Attract Pollinators To Your Garden

OIL & HONEY EDITION

Pollinator at work!

We all know I am on the side of pollinators.  Butterflies, bees, and wasps are all pollinators and necessary for food production!  I prefer not to use poisons in my garden, flower beds or anywhere in my yard.  I keep a habitat for pollinators to flourish in that is safe.  I admit I’m not crazy about the wasps or yellow jackets but I don’t try to eliminate them with poison.  Trying to eradicate one type of pollinator will surely lead to the demise of all.

My newest oil passion has lead me to a “pollinator attractor”.  It’s as simple as blending one of the essential oils with a bit of water and spraying on and around flowers to attract bees and butterflies to the garden.  Simple!  It’s a safe and effective way to bring the beautiful butterflies and bees of all types into your garden this summer!
