I was surprised to see so many tubes sealed (it’s on its second year but it looks like we missed the window to swap in the replacement tubes I’d made). If you spot any other issues please let me know.
You could add a mesh 1 cm in front of it so birds can not get to the eggs/larvae.
Been meaning to build a new one! Thanks for the reminder.
What size drill bits did you use? Those are a lot bigger than what I had going on.
🤞We need more pollinators. Thanks for doing your part!
What’s a bee house? I thought bees lived in hives.
The bees most people are familiar with do live in hives, but as far as I know, there are more bee species that do not.
Mark your calendar to swap out the tubes for new ones in early summer to help prevent disease and parasites (it sounds like you’re aware of this, but leaving the comment just in case): https://news.vt.edu/articles/2020/03/ext-entomologists-tips-for-installing-and-maintaining-native-bee-houses.html
