More about Save The Bees Australia:


There are over 1500 species of indigenous bees in Australia and many are yet to be discovered. Some species are likely to go extinct because of the rate of large land clearing and pesticide use in Australia.
 
Indigenous bees are more susceptible to pesticides and land clearing than honeybees because the majority of indigenous bee species are solitary and live underground and are endemic to specific areas.
 
So devastating is the effect of the pesticide neonicotinoids in Australia that areas that once homed indigenous bees are now GMO crop wastelands with less biodiversity than the desert. So devoid of life these area need honeybees bought in to pollinate the crops because the pesticide have killed the natural pollinators.
 
Save The Bees Australia are running a successful campaign against neonicotinoids which helped encourage Woolworths, Bunnings and other outlets to stop selling the Bayer product Confidor which is a neonicotinoid.
 
The organisation have successfully stopped spaying programs targeting mosquitoes that kill all insects including indigenous bees.

How do I care for my Sydney Sock Project socks?
  • Washing: Machine wash your socks in cold water with similar colors. This helps prevent color bleeding and maintains the vibrancy of your socks.

  • Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or harsh detergents, as they can damage the fibers and colors of the socks.

The socks are early Christmas presents for my grandchildren. I also bought Black Cockatoos, Wombats, Bin Chickens et al. I'm thrilled with all of them, tho I wish I'd known you were going to have a sale just weeks after I bought them! My grandchildren will love them! Great quality, fast delivery and it's good to know I'm supporting worthwhile organisations.
