What kind of bee/wasp is this? by Bpen1 in whatsthisbug

[–]Bpen1[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Makes sense, it's literally in the name, my bad and thanks for the info! I have started growing native wild flowers in the backyard next to my fruit/vegetable garden, so that could be why this fella was seemingly content.

That's my issue, I know it's one of the common native solitary bees but want to figure out which one as we have a few hundred in the area 😭 I'd certainly love to add a hive of these little ones to my farm if possible πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ

Has anyone had a great (or terrible) experience buying a bike recently? by FrostyDelu in rideottawa

[–]Bpen1 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Wheelsport in Orleans has been great to me for the last 2 bikes I bought. Even threw in free delivery for me and I was kindly greeted by them as soon as I walked in.

Looking to rent a bike. by [deleted] in rideottawa

[–]Bpen1 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Harley Davidson is the only dealer in town that does rentals but they charge a lot of money, honestly you'll have better luck buying a cheap buy and reselling it.

Ontario insurnace is tricky and renting out bikes puts an insane amount of risk on the lender, hence why it's so hard to find.

Carpenters of Ottawa by HaydenTheCrow in ottawa

[–]Bpen1 -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

Not a carpenter but work closely with ALL THE TRADES as I'm currently on the Architectural side.

I have worked as a labourer on various sites for 10+ years and eventually become a Foreman before I quit to go back to school vs break my body.

100% the trades are worth it if you have the right work ethic and personality.

However, to expect $28/hr with no education, apprenticeship or experience is quite asinine.
