Love the mohawk grass look-that’s a great idea! We need to search information and find common ground for almost everything. I am all for bees, but I don’t want the ticks, so... there is something in the middle like you found out. Thanks!

The positive aspect of the to mow or not to mow question is that it brings public attention to the need to protect wildlife and pollinators. Hopefully, the issue will result in creative evidence-based community policies and not emotional “We’ve got to do something!” reactions.

I agree. I've learned a lot in the last couple of weeks.

PS Evidence-based science is not the same as consensus science. The latter is dangerous as it supresses research and promotes "popular" policies rather than fruitful policies.
