Ground bees

[Jadeypie]

I recently dug out a new flower boarder at the back of my garden. Been prepping the soil getting rid of weeds ect. I noticed two bees (maybe 3) pottering around, thought nothing of it. Anyway I planted some plants I had and have more to go in when I get them, but I realised today these bees have took resident underground and now I don't no what to do?

Obviously they are harmless and it's quite charming watching them but my boarder isn't finished so does that mean I can't plant anymore plants? I don't want to get rid of them because bees are important.

My question is can I still finish planting my plants or is that going to piss the bees off? (Google had no answe for me) haha

Thanks xx

Love ground bees! They aren’t aggressive and just carry on their little lives.

apparently they don’t like wet ground so if you want them to move on you can water the area. Ours are under the trampoline so nice and dry 😂

I think you can probably plant around them fine though.

@Runningbird43 Thank you for replying 🙂 tbh when I watered yesterday, I noticed them being a bit frantic. Bless them! They didn't mind me planting yesterday, so I think I will carry on. I just don't want to ruin any nests they might have. I did put the sprinkler closer today, and the little bee came right over for a nose, then went back to doing its thing haha think I've found a new facination with them haha
