CS/12 – 68 TUBE ORCHARD BIODEGRADABLE BEE NEST (STANDARD KIT)

Description

Extensive research by USDA has found that 6″ long cardboard tubes about 5/16″ in diameter are preferred by the bees over 4″ holes drilled in wood blocks. The longer 6″ tubes also insure a higher female ratio in the six or seven egg compartments-when compared to 4″ long tubes.Kinsman Mason Nest Houses have a weatherproof housing molded from all-green materials (Rice hulls and Bamboo). The 6″ cardboard nesting tubes are made from Kraft paper, clear wrapped for moisture resistance. Both the tubes and housing are made from eco-friendly biodegradable materials. Each Nest Kit comes with an informative leaflet about Orchard Mason Bees.
