Handmade, dispatched and on its way to its lovely new home!
🐝 Bee hotels are places for solitary bees to make their nests. These bees live alone, not in hives and don’t make honey

🐝 Solitary bees don’t defend their territory, but they do collect aphids, caterpillars 🐛 and other insects which might be chomping away at your beautiful garden

🐝 Whilst they are solitary bees they will gather in bundled tubes, one to a tunnel, to shelter and raise their young

🐝 You’re likely to attract the following g solitary bees such as Mason bees, Leafcutter bees and Yellow-faced bees which naturally nest in hollow stems, earth banks or old beetle holes in dead wood. None of these bees are aggressive, so they are fine around children and pets.

Why you should put a bee hotel in your garden…..
🐝 Britain has around 270 species of bees, of which around 250 are solitary
🐝 Bee hotels are a great way to help our solitary bees, by providing much-needed shelter in our gardens
🐝As pollinators, bees play a part in every aspect of the ecosystem. They support the growth of trees, flowers, and other plants, which serve as food and shelter for creatures large and small

How do they work?
🐝The bee hotel should be positioned in a sunny area
🐝It can take a while for the bees to settle within the hotel, so don’t give up
