Nesting Tubes

Cardboard nesting tubes are attractive to mason bees and are a good way of starting with Mason Bees. The 35 Beediverse tubes are closed at one end and are ready for use. Make it easy for bees to find their home by creating a pattern with the yellow nesting tubes. 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 vincinity they search for suitable nesting holes such as cardboard nesting tubes or nesting holes created from stacked routered trays (see the Beediverse STS tray system). Yellow tubes help bees orient to the nest. Tubes are a one-time use nest. Once the bee uses the tube as a nest, dirt parasites decreases livablity of the straw. Unoccupied tubes are re-useable. In the fall (Oct-Dec) unfurl tubes, gather, wash and store hibernating mason bee cocoons.
