    Mason Bees
    Posted on May 13, 2018 by Durgan
    After spending some time browsing for a Mason Bee house this is the best found. I have ordered one, since I desire to go into mason bee production. The price is reasonable, and the construction appears to be well thought out. This is my first effort in producing bees. A lot of reading separating the essence from the chaff.

    Expect my mason bee house this week, so am preparing for setting up. The bees require clay for nest building. That I have in abundance so dug some clean stuff and stored it in a half liter jar. I will put some daily in the vicinity of their nest in a shallow tray.
