Bees, Wasps, and Ants : The Indispensable Role of Hymenoptera in Gardens, Paperback / softback Book

Bees, Wasps, and Ants : The Indispensable Role of Hymenoptera in Gardens Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Few insects are more important than bees, wasps, and ants.

They maintain the garden’s biological balance, fertilize vegetables, fruits, and flowers, and recycle nutrients within the soil.

It’s no exaggeration to say that a garden can’t be understood without an understanding of its insects.

Bees, Wasps, and Ants explores the importance of the Hymenoptera and explains how gardeners can encourage (or discourage) them in the garden.

Part One includes a summary of their biology and a tour of what role they play in each part of the garden.

Part Two takes a closer look at the individual groups within the family, including sawflies, horntails, woodwasps, parasitic wasps, predatory wasps, bees, and ants.

This book is only available through print on demand.

All interior art is black and white.
