Make a bee house
- Find or make an open ended box made of untreated wood, around 20cm deep and any width/height
- Drill holes into dry logs or sections of untreated timber, up to 18cm long, ensuring there are no splinters in the holes and that the holes don't reach the other end. Different sized holes will attract different bees – the harebell bee, for example, will use smaller holes
- Hang your bee house in a sunny position, on a firm surface such as a sturdy fence
