bee poster

CWF’s colourful Wild About… poster series is perfect for gardeners, wildlife enthusiasts and educators. They identify species native to Canada and let you know what you can do to attract them to your garden or neighbourhood park. CWF’s newest poster, Wild About Bees, acquainted Canadians with mason bees, nomad bees and dwarf carpenter bees, among many others. This poster introduces 16 species of bees, along with details on how each species nests.

What you can do to...

...to protect Canada’s pollinators

  • Plant a variety of perennials that produce flowers of different shapes, colours and blooming times. Not surprisingly, native species are best for encouraging our homegrown pollinators.
  • Reduce or eliminate your use of pesticides and herbicides that poison friend and foe alike, and that accumulate in the environment that we all share.
  • Create habitat for pollinators as part of a WILD School habitat. Visit the Wild Education website for more information.
  • Write to your municipality and school board and ask them if they have a "no cosmetic pesticide" policy. If they have a policy, congratulate them. If they do not, encourage them to consider it.
  • Spread the word! Check out Hinterland Who’s Who webisode, "Pollinators – Busy Doing What?" or the 2008 National Wildlife Week

Together, we can make a difference!
