Something about insects
5 months ago
I just saved a bumblebee and want to share some useful information with anyone who feels sympathy for these cute creatures.
Sometimes bumblebees and bees spend too much energy and can't fly because of hunger. In this case, they may die if they don't find some food.
Just drop a little jam, syrup, sweet soda or anything with sugar near them - and in a couple of seconds the insect will be able to rise into the air and fly off to do their business, and you will get a small plus in your karma
(Your help is needed if you see that the insect is alive, but barely moves its legs and cannot fly. And of course, you should not touch it with your hands)
I decided to share this with you in case you don't know what to do, and simply because I think it's the humane and right thing.

If you don't want to attract other insects, plant some fresh sunflowers in the area. The trouble with sweet sticky thing is hornets and wasps are attracted to this too, and they'll attack the poor bumblebee if trying to feed.
