Our garden has tons of beautiful flowers, bushes, and other greenery, but being away from it for some time it has grown weeds. The bees are now covering most of the plants, so how are we going to get rid of the weeds?!? Any suggestions?

You really don't have to worry about the bees. I have a little saying "A busy bee won't bother me". I know it sounds corny, but it is true. Those bees couldn't give a flip that you are out their working next to them. They work next to all kinds of other insects and animals. However, if you a phobic or just a little scared then wait until dusk. By 7pm all my little bee friends have turned in for the night. Good Luck

Don't wear hairspray or perfume. They won't bother you. I leave my garlic in the ground beyond harvest time for the bees. Just trying to bee nice. Cell phones are not killing the bees, the experts have found a parasite that is doing it. You could just leave the weeds until the bees are finished with them and before they go to seed.

Tackle the weeds at night when the bees have returned to the hive, or wait til fall, or don a beekeeper's suit and get to work!

Wait, seriously cell phones are killing off the bees. Leave them alone until they are done collecting pollen then pull the weeds.

Bees don't bother me. You should be alright unless you stumble upon a hive. Then just run, and they will leave you alone.

You will have to wait until evening, when they are gone.
