Why a bee box?
A bee box brings helpful pollinators to your garden, boosting blooms and vegetables. Made from eco-friendly bamboo, it gives solitary bees a safe place to nest and lay eggs. It’s easy to hang, built to last through any weather, and adds a cheerful touch to your yard. By supporting bees, you support your garden and the planet at the same time.
Our bee house is designed for solitary pollinators like mason bees, leafcutter bees, and other beneficial insects. The variety of tube sizes attracts different species, helping to create a thriving ecosystem in your garden. These pollinators are excellent for boosting plant growth and biodiversity.
Not at all! Solitary bees are non-aggressive and do not defend their nests like honeybees or wasps. They rarely sting and only do so if directly handled or threatened, making them safe to have in your garden.
To encourage bees to use the house, place it in a sunny, sheltered spot facing south or southeast. Ensure it's at least 3–5 feet off the ground and near flowering plants. Avoid spraying pesticides nearby, as they can deter or harm pollinators. Over time, as bees discover the safe nesting space, they’ll start using it to lay their eggs. You can also place a bowl of water somewhere nearby and even scent it with lemongrass oil.
