Solitary Beehive

About this product

This unique solitary beehive is manufactured from durable FSC timber and provides valuable habitat for bees in modern gardens. Designed specifically to attract non-swarming bees like the Red Mason Bee, Leafcutter Bee and other solitary bees which are naturally attracted to holes in wood.

Fascinating and great for education, the beehive can be easily dismantled to see the formation of small cells where the eggs are laid, or indeed where predators have been active.

Always a friend to the gardener, attracting solitary bees to the garden is not only safe, but beneficial to pollination of flowers, fruit and vegetables.

Siting: Site in a visible warm place ideally oriented to face between southeast and south and to catch some sun. It is helpful to have soil nearby, and food sources such as flowers, orchards and fruit.

Nb. Solitary bees will often roost in this product during periods of cold weather and overnight. The product should not be dismantled at these times.
