An article in Life Science magazine April 2009 explains how critical honeybees are to re-pollination of flowers & food, especially apples, blueberries, broccoli and almonds. In 2007 60% of the domestic honeybees died. What we non-scientific people may not understand is human want of weed free yards is part of the problem. Wild bees and bats can not fill the gap left by the dead domestic bees. Removing all wild weeds also removes sources of nurtition and re-pollination of important fruits and vegetables. Little does the general population understand the interaction between nature and humans. Let's keep a few weed patches at least along the roadways.
