We need conservation not bee bricks...

Isn’t that the purpose of the bricks? I mean if it’s ineffective that’s a problem, but wasn’t the brick developed with the idea of conservation of bees?

Conservation means protecting and securing wild habitat. This approach works at saving and building populations where ideas like this brick get clicks and shares. It might work but saving habitat always works and always benefits more than just your target species.

The city should be planting native wild flowers and building habitat in wood lots that promote bee colonization.
