"Experience the fascinating world of bees with these cardboard solitary bee nesting tubes. Solitary bees are a delight to watch going about their vital work of pollinating in your garden. They are non-aggressive to people and pets. It is their lifestyle which makes them so gentle. They do not live in a colony and do not have any honey to defend. From March to August the female bees will lay eggs in the tubes. Then create a series of cells separated by mud or leaf walls. However, this depends on species. The larvae will develop over the winter period in the tubes. Then emerge as adult bees the following spring. The males and females then mate and the whole cycle of the females laying the larvae in the tubes begins over again. Our tubes are ideal for mason/orchard bees. Used to easily fill existing bee boxes or to make your own simple bee nester. By using fresh cardboard tubes every season excellent bee health may be maintained. For professional management of solitary bees in horticultural and orchard environments you may wish to use these tubes in conjunction with paper tube liners to enable examination of the bee cells and parasite control. • To help the conservation of these species please support the International Bee Research Association – IBRA WEBSITE

The design principle is that Robins prefer an open style nest box with easy access, but also like to be concealed from the prying eyes of predators. The entrance is open, but the nest space is both concealed behind the side wall and covered by the roof. Robins love to nest in sheds with 24/7 access or in a porches or on shelves in outbuildings or similar. The nester is lightweight and be wired into a hedge or ivy or attached to a wall using the supplied spare loop of fixing wire. The base of the brushwood nester has a rattan landing platform with a low dividing wall separating the nesting or roosting space. The Brushwood Robin Nester has previously won the Best New Product Design at GLEE in the Pet and Wildlife category. The nester is also suitable for other bird species such as wagtails and spotted flycatchers which prefer the same style of open-fronted nester."
