Because the bee hotel is made from concrete it is hardy and will withstand all seasons. If you wish to you can clean the cavities once a year when you are certain that they are empty, we recommend at the end of the season when you're certain there is no more activity (around October time). Full instructions on where to put your bee hotel and how to care for it are included within the packaging and literature.
The Bee Block comes wrapped in a simple card wrap to protect the product with a sleeve that contains more information about solitary bees.
