Suitable for small gardens, balconies and new beekeepers
Easily stackable modular design
These rugged nesting trays are made of environmentally friendly rugged corn material, and stack to create 30 nesting tunnels. Just the right number to start your Mason Bee population.

Includes:

• 10 interlocking pieces with 30 nesting tunnels

Corn material is a environmentally friendly alternative to plastic. Corn is a renewable resource and corn is a sustainable product.

Note the varied colour of the trays. Unlike Honeybees, each Mason Bee nests in its own tunnel. Mason bees use colour to find their nests readily and reliably. The coloured trays help keep bees at home and increase pollination in your garden.

Our Quicklock nesting trays have matching, routered grooves. When paired and stacked, the trays form nesting tunnels 7.5 mm or 5/16 of an inch in diameter – the optimum size bees prefer. The stacking design makes cleaning and harvesting a snap. In the fall, simply pop the trays apart and gently slide the cocoons out of the exposed grooves with our Bee Scoop.

Ezy to set up and Ezy to harvest!

Cardboard nesting tubes are attractive to mason bees and are a good way of starting with and keeping Mason Bees. Nesting tubes are ready for spring mason bees that are looking for suitable nesting material.

DIRECTIONS: Set tubes into a dark water-proof container to protect them from rain and direct sun. Fix container onto a sunny wall of a house or shed before spring blossoms are in bloom. When wild mason bees are in the vicinity they search for suitable nesting material such as cardboard nesting tubes or nesting holes created from stackable Quicklock corn trays also available from Beediverse products.

Cardboard is 100% recyclable paper. Tubes are a one-time item. Once a mason bee uses the tube as a nest, dirt and parasites decreases the livability of the nesting tube. Unoccupied tubes are re-useable.

DIRECTIONS FOR HARVESTING COCOONS: In the fall (Oct-Dec) simply unfurl tubes, gather, wash and store hibernating mason bee cocoons. Use the Beediverse ‘Bee Cocoon Shelter’ to safely emerge these bees.

Includes:

• 100 Ezy-Harvest cardboard tubes closed at one end

Material: Ezy- harvest cardboard
Dimensions: standard size
length 6 inches, diameter 5/16 inch or length 15.5 cm, diameter 7.5mm

A natural way to keep Mason Bees.
Mason bees love them! A renewable resource.

Lay bundle of reeds horizontally in an opaqua, waterproof container with open access at one end. Place in a warm sunny spot in your yard or garden, and you’ve got a Mason Bee Home.

Or buy the reeds as refills for the Beediverse Starter Cottage.

Reeds are for one-time use. In the fall, open reeds in half by pressing on reed at one end, opening up the reed and removing cocoons. Use fresh reeds in the spring.
