Mason Bees in Illinois

While the honey bee may be one of the most important pollinators, another pollinator species, the mason bee, also works hard to move pollen from plants within our landscape. Erin Garrett, University of Illinois Extension Energy and Environmental Stewardship Educator, provides information on the mason bee and how to build a nest habitat for the mason bee.
