bees on holly bush


Question
I have 4 holly bushes, blooming with great red berries but each plant is covered with bees, wasps, & yellow jackets.  Any suggestions on what to do?  Thanks!

Answer
Kelly,

There is really nothing to do about this. What the bees and wasps are doing is pollinating the plant, which will lead to flowering next year.

If they are a nuisence, you can spray them with awasp and hornet killer, but I would not recommend it.

Good luck.
