Bee Conservation Services Built for Lasting Impact

Our bee conservation services help you choose a practical next step. Find resources for a school lesson, a nesting area for native bees, or a honey bee swarm near your home.

A Connected Approach

What our bee conservation services cover

Bees are small creatures with an outsized impact on our world. As crucial pollinators, they play a vital role in maintaining biodiversity and ensuring the survival of many plant species, including those that produce our food. However, bee populations are under threat, and their decline poses a significant risk to our environment. Save The Bees USA responds with a multifaceted approach focused on educating students, saving bees, protecting the public from swarms, building bee homes, and promoting sustainability.

Learn, Observe, Steward

Bee conservation services for schools

For a school or youth group, begin with our free bee activity guides. For example, students can look for places where bees could feed or nest and then compare what they found. An observation hive presentation offers a closer look at a living honey bee colony.

  • Clear actions students can bring home and into their communities

Address the Root Causes

Saving Bees Through Habitat and Responsible Action

For a garden project, begin by looking for gaps in bloom. For example, an area with lots of spring flowers may offer little food by late summer. Our habitat work connects bee conservation services with practical choices about what to plant and where to leave room for nests.

To choose plants for your own area, enter your ZIP code in Pollinator Partnership’s regional planting guides. Then look for flowers that bloom during different parts of the season.

Safety Without Extermination

Protecting People and Bees From Swarm Conflicts

Public safety is a priority. Save The Bees USA encourages responsible swarm response so honey bee colonies can be assessed and, when appropriate, safely relocated rather than unnecessarily exterminated.

This approach helps safeguard people while respecting the important role bees play in healthy ecosystems.

Habitat That Works

Build Places Where Pollinators Can Thrive

Building Bee Homes

Suitable nesting habitat gives solitary native bees and managed colonies safer places to live and raise their young. Thoughtful bee homes can complement forage, water, and undisturbed nesting areas.

Promoting Sustainability

Bee conservation is deeply connected to sustainable farming, careful pesticide practices, habitat preservation, and daily choices that protect biodiversity and resilient ecosystems.
