£17.95

Our Solitary Bee Hive Nester is designed to attract solitary, non-swarming bees such as mason bees and leafcutter bees. Solitary bees do not swarm and are safe to have around children and pets. Solitary bees have a vital role in the plant pollination of both ornamental and food crops. However, bees are in decline worldwide and their habitats under threat from development, intensive agriculture and indiscriminate use of pesticides and herbicides.

These bees are naturally attracted to holes in wood and our solitary bee hive provides a habitat that has become harder to find in modern gardens. Our solitary bee hive is constructed from durable FSC timber with individual cell trays which can be opened for inspection and cleaning.

By siting a solitary bee hive in your garden you are offering them a safe and protected environment as well as making a practical contribution to conservation and biodiversity. This in turn will have the added benefit of increasing the pollination of plants in the surrounding area.

Hand made in the UK using untreated FSC hardwood timber.
Colours may vary depending on the type of hardwood used.

Size (approx): 19cm high x 17cm wide x 17cm deep.
