    Join your local Freecycle group and post the bees as an 'OFFE'RED....if they're honey bees, you'll have plenty of takers.

    Hi. Do bumble bees all die in autumn after the queens fly the nest then? I 've been on the internet and it appears numbers of bumble bees are very low so i don't really want to kill them. Does this mean I can remove the nest in winter as it will be empty?

    Very confusing! Does anyone know?

    Bumblebees are one of the most important insects in the garden and kiling them is a big no-no.
    No bees=no plants pollinated=no food.
