You will love their antics.  Summer Leafcutter bees are great pollinators when temperatures are above 20C/70F.

They pollinate summer flowers including vegetable crops such as tomatoes, squash and herbs.

Leafcutter bees use tiny pieces of leaves and flower petals to surround their offspring and provide protection against predatory insects. They are solitary bees that use nesting tunnels for producing next year’s offspring.

In the the fall cocoons can simply be pushed out of nesting tunnels and nesting BLOK can be reused the following year.
