What pollinates apples, besides bees?

I'd like to plant apple trees -- only a couple -- in my yard.
If I must have honeybees, then I'll look into the details of that.
But honeybees, who wander far, are likely to run into insecticides. I
live in a city, next to lots of neighbors and even a school. There's
no way to prevent them all from using bug-killer.
Thank you!

Honey bees are the best and most common pollinator but American native bees
also work. Wind pollination is insignificant.
