Plant native plants and flowers nearby to draw these super-pollinating bees to the bee house. Very important for the native bees to have a food source for their young.
Create a moist patch of soil near the bee house to have mud to protect their young.
In autumn, store the bee house (with cocooned larvae inside) in an outdoor shed or covered location for winter. Do not store inside your house.
In early spring, return house to original location.
Once new bees hatch, clean out nest tubes and trays with pipe cleaners for next season’s offspring
Nesting tray bands and cardboard backing should remain in place to protect the bees.
