Overview
Nesting Tubes for Solitary Bees 100 pcs 15 cm Hole Diameter 8 mm Paper Tubes for Insect Hotel For Mason Bees and Pollinators

Paper nesting tubes are a simple way to provide solitary bees with a safe place to establish their nests. The package contains 100 pcs of tubes, sufficient to fill an insect hotel and several smaller shelters. Each tube measures 15 cm in length and the hole diameter of 8 mm corresponds to the size preferred by mason bees and other solitary bees. Simply insert the tubes into a wooden house, frame, or box with holes and place them in a sunny spot. They are suitable for gardeners who want to attract pollinators to their gardens, as well as for anyone needing to refill or renew their insect hotel.

The tubes are made of paper and have a simple cylindrical shape. Bees gradually carry pollen into them, lay eggs, and seal the individual chambers with mud or plant material. The outer diameter of the tube is 10 mm, allowing them to be comfortably stacked closely together in a bundle or in the compartments of the insect house. The same length and diameter facilitate even filling of the entire space, ensuring the shelter appears tidy and that bees can easily find a suitable hole.

Paper tubes are a practical alternative to plant stems or bamboo, which can vary in length and diameter. They are also suitable for school and family projects, where children can build a simple bee house and then observe as the tubes gradually fill up. The finished bundle of tubes can be placed on a balcony, terrace, in the garden, orchard, or near a flower bed with blooming plants and herbs, where bees will find ample food.
