These reeds will be used by blue orchard and leafcutter bees, and other native mason bees will use their varying sized holes as well. These reeds are natural lakebed reeds for use with your bees. They have been hand cut with varying hole sizes from 7 to 10 mm (0.28 to 0.41 inches) and are about 15 cm (6 inches) long. They will fit into all our mason bee homes. In a side-by-side comparison, a spring mason bee will prefer reeds over tubes or wood trays. It is the unique shape, color, and size of the reeds that allow nesting bees to easily find their specific hole.
Features:
Pack of Reeds contain 25 hand cut reeds
How to Use the Reeds
Place the reeds as far back in your mason bee house as possible to protect the reeds and bees from direct rain.
Spring mason bee females find their hole initially by sight and then by smell as they crawl into it.
