This is intended for the occupants described above (commonly called ­ "Wild Bees"). For the first time, it is now possible to study the previously hidden life and development of our solitary Bees and Wasps by lifting out the front panel with its transparent nesting tubes. It is possible to watch the cycle from egg-laying to development of the larvae, right up until the time the insect leaves the brood chamber the next season. Note that it is essential to properly replace the front panel after each inspection to keep the insects in darkness.

Occupants:

Hymenoptera such as Wild Bees, Sand Wasps and Common Wasps.

Suitable sites:

There are no hard and fast rules for siting but care should be taken to select a sunny site that is protected from wind and rain. Examples of good sites include allotment sheds, pergolas, walls, gardens and even balconies up to the third or fourth floor. Nesting aids should also be left outside during the winter because otherwise the Insects will emerge from their winter hiding places too early and die.
We strongly recommend sunny places for this device!

Material:

Box: wood-concrete with weatherproof wooden front panel.
Interior: transparent nesting tubes of different diameters. Especially for observation!

Size:

W 21 x H 33 x D 15 cm

Weight:

approx. 9.2 kg
