Wildlife Garden bee house - yellow

A bee house can help increase the number of solitary bees in the garden. They are called solitary bees because, unlike honeybees and bumblebees, they do not live in colonies, but alone in small cavities.

Solitary bees, which closely resemble honeybees, are incredibly beneficial in the garden, helping to pollinate fruit bushes and trees, among other things.

This bee house is made with bamboo tubes that have been specially selected because they are just the right size for these bees. It also has an overhanging roof that protects the tubes from rain.

The bees use the house both to store pollen and to lay eggs. Once the female has laid her eggs, she seals the entrance.
