The Pollinating Bee Nester offers a natural home for solitary bees, including the Mason bee the Leafcutter bee as well as a variety of over wintering insects. Solitary bees are vital for pollinating fruit and vegetables, herbs and flowers and they are non-swarming and non-aggressive, they are safe with both children and pets.

The Nester is made from solid FSC timber and is designed to give good insulation, so it does not require moving inside during winter. The nester is filled with natural cane nesting tubes for the bees.

The Nester can be hung from trees or a pergola or from a wall with the special strengthened seagrass hanging ropes.
