Helpful article! I wasn't aware of this issue. Thank you!
To add to the points made in the article, another important method of providing pollinators with habitat is to leave fall leaves down (if applicable to your area). https://www.xerces.org/blog/leave-the-leave
Dead leaves also make a good mulch.
