More conservation programs directed towards insects are needed in order to prevent the continue decline in which many insect species in the world are heading to. New ways to use the remaining microhabitats are needed to mitigate the fragmentation and degradation that urbanization and modern agriculture have contributed to in the southern Swedish landscapes. This study focusses on how microhabitats like road-verges can help the conservation projects of pollinating insects. To increase the knowledge about three groups of pollinators (Apidae, Rhopalocera and Syrphidae) and their distribution between two different microhabitats, a malaise trap was set up in road verges and in sample locations further away from the road-verges. The result from this study shows that road-verges are a microhabitat that could work as mitigation to the decline of some pollinating species, if right actions are taken. This study shows that Syrphidae was most acceptant to the hostile environment close to the roads. If these actions are going to help the most treated species is still unknown.
