A fascinating product for attracting beneficial pollinators to the garden.

The Pollinating Bee Log offers a natural home for solitary bees, including the Mason Bee, the Leafcutter Bee as well as a variety of over wintering insects. Vital for pollinating fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers, these bees are non swarming and non aggressive and are safe with children and pets.

The Log is made from solid FSC timber and designed to give good insulation (does not require moving inside in winter) and is filled with natural cane nesting tubes for the bees. The Log can be hung on a wall or from trees, pergolas or pole systems with the special strengthened seagrass hanging ropes.

Siting: Position in a warm place near a nectar source and to catch the morning sun. Ideally hung in a sunny corner of the garden near foliage, between 1 - 2 metres high, (max 3metres).
