@davbram Hmmmm... #NeemOil might not be great for bees either and should be applied in the evening (I never knew this...)."As much as I wanted to tackle the bug problem right away, the buzzing neighbors—the bees —had me worried. Would neem oil send them packing or allow them to thrive?Using neem oil means walking a tightrope between protecting plants and safeguarding pollinators. The oil, derived from the seeds of the neem tree , works wonders on aphids and whiteflies , yet it might create havoc for our buzzing buddies if used recklessly.Balancing this fine line is crucial because while neem oil is a potent tool for fighting garden pests, its impact on bees hinges on how and when it’s applied.Let me share a personal tip: apply neem oil during the late evening. In my garden, this timing helped reduce bee exposure while keeping pesky insects at bay."https://evergreenseeds.com/is-neem-oil-bad-for-bees/ #SolarPunkSunday #GardeningForPollinators #NeemOil #BeeHealth #NaturalInsecticides
