If you have a backyard, plant native flowers, trees, and bushes.
If you have a backyard, plant native flowers, trees, and bushes. These provide food and shelter for all sorts of wildlife, including insects like bees and butterflies (which can also help pollinate your plants – a win-win!) But be careful not to plant non-native plants (also known as exotic plants). These are often actually invasive species, which compete or even prey on native species for food and resources, increasing their risk of extinction.
