These cavity nesting bees need dry, safe hollow spaces to lay their eggs and raise their young. Traditional nesting sites such as dead trees or uncut rough grass are often removed from modern gardens and landscapes to make them look neat and tidy. If you want to provide a home for insect pollinators in your garden, consider making an insect hotel.<\/p>\n\t<h2><strong>Sustainability Goals this Project Meets<\/strong><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/sustainabledevelopment\/cities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" itemprop=\"url\">\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/herofortheplanet.org\/healthysoils\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2019\/06\/E_SDG-goals_icons-individual-rgb-11.png\" alt=\"E_SDG goals_icons-individual-rgb-11\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1536\" width=\"1536\" title=\"E_SDG goals_icons-individual-rgb-11\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/sustainabledevelopment\/biodiversity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" itemprop=\"url\">\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/herofortheplanet.org\/healthysoils\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/29\/2019\/06\/E_SDG-goals_icons-individual-rgb-15.png\" alt=\"E_SDG goals_icons-individual-rgb-15\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1536\" width=\"1536\" title=\"E_SDG goals_icons-individual-rgb-15\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<h2>Drawdown Solutions this Project Meets<\/h2>\n\t<h2>Questions to Consider<\/h2>\n<p>As you consider this project idea, here are some questions to ask:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\nDoes this project address the threats of your pollinator species?
