While it’s true that butterflies and moths are not as efficient as honeybees at pollination the sheer number of flowers they can visit per day more than make up for the difference. Butterflies in their prime can visit up to 5000 flowers in one day.

Butterfly houses are an inexpensive to buy, and very easy to build. You can help the population by providing a place for them.

While the average bat can consume 10,000 mosquitoes per day in your own backyard
Recent studies estimate that bats eat enough pests to save more than $1 billion per year in crop damage and pesticide costs in the United States corn industry alone. This is reason enough to take a look at bats in the role of reducing the amount of chemicals that are sprayed on crops.

There are more than 530 species of flowering plants that rely on bats as either their major or exclusive pollinators. Some of these plants include agave (which are harvested to supply the multimillion dollar tequila industry), bananas, and balsa trees (which produce the world’s lightest timber).

There are over 50 species of known hummingbirds that pollinate a wide variety of large flowers, some of which are directly specialized to be pollinated only by hummingbirds. Hummingbirds can visit up to 2000 flowers per day and thats pretty impressive. They are also the only bird that can fly backwards, and they are considered a keystone species essential for life on the planet.

There are over 20,000 bee species worldwide, including our most treasured natural resource the honey bee, Wild bee species live on every continent except Antarctica.

Honey bees alone pollinate 80 percent of all flowering plants, including more than 130 types of fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately, bee populations have dropped alarmingly across North America, as have the populations of many other pollinator species. There are many species of bees that almost never or never sting including mason, bees, and they are very easy to raise on your property. Get involved do your part every home should have a hive.

Beekeeping, or apiculture, is the practice of maintaining bee colonies in man made hives, often for honey production and pollination services. Beekeepers oversee the health of the colonies, harvest hive products, and require a vast knowledge of bee biology and behavior.

Human existence is absolutely dependent on honeybee survival “No bees, No food, No people” it’s really that simple.

Get involved learn how to be a pollinator keeper, bees butterflies, hummingbirds, bats we can teach you everything you need to know.

Beekeepers across America keep over 100 million hives and move them all over the country to pollinate the food in your grocery store. We are falling behind a little bit every year and we lose about half the bees. Every year.

We can make that change together, we can solve this problem, we will do the research and we will build the habitat with your help.

Stay in the honeybee lodge with your group or conferenceStay in the pollinator hotel. Vacation amongst the pollinators, eat in our farm to table restaurant with a pollinator-based menu.

Stay in one of our many Bee-N-B’s scattered throughout a square mile of wilderness. Right out in the wild 20 feet up in the air on the island, in a yurt. You decide how you want to interact with the pollinators.

Build your green, dream home on the edge of the pollinator project

If you have your doctorate in biology or entomology or anything, having to do with pollinators, come do research with us in our state of the art facility and on our one-of-a-kind, pollinator habitat area
If you’re working on your doctorate and you want to do pollinator research, come do it with us. If you want to be involved in pollinator research, come do it with us we are going to build a world-class research facility. We are going to study pollinators on thousands of acres of organically managed pollinator habitat.
We are going to partner with universities all over the world to do research on bees, hummingbirds, butterflies , and bats. We’re gonna solve this problem. Together there’s nothing we can’t do. The first things on the list are;
-Varroa mites.
-American foulbrood
-Black queen sell virus
-Deformed wing virus
-Kashmir the virus
-White nose virus in bats
-pesticide usage in all pollinator environments
-natural remedies for all of these, so we don’t cause more problems.

Not only should every home in America have a pollinator house, but they should leave pollinator habitat on their property. Thepollinatorproject.org will provide you with free seed and a plan to develop pollinator habitat on your property. Even if it’s a raised bed or pots on your deck, a small flower garden, the roof of your building, everything counts, a bat house up in a tree, a butterfly structure in your front yard, No area is too small. We will help you have something flowering throughout the entire growing season, and a place for your pollinators to live. Call us today, get involved, volunteer, donate, do something.
