I have heard about the bumble bee problem due to so much herbicide being used.
We just returned from an 11 day trip to the east coast and the henbit had gone crazy.
It was really nice to see a few big old fat bumble bees though. Now they can just move on to my fruit trees since I have been working on removing the weeds.
