Offer solitary bees and other beneficial insects a cosy place to shelter with this beautifully handcrafted teardrop bee and bug nester.
Perfect for adding character to your outdoor space, it also makes a thoughtful, eco-friendly gift for nature lovers and gardeners.
This bee hotel has been skilfully crafted by Fair Trade artisans in India using recycled metal, salvaged cotton, sustainable bamboo tubes and natural munja. Due to this, each house is a different mix of colours, making each one unique.
Solitary bees are among the UK’s most effective pollinators, yet modern landscaping and habitat loss have left them with fewer safe places to nest. By placing our beautifully handcrafted teardrop bee hotel in your garden, on a balcony, or against a sunny wall, you’ll help protect them while enriching your outdoor space with a unique decoration.
Position your bee house in a sheltered, sunny spot near pollen-rich flowers to encourage solitary bees and other beneficial insects to settle in. The design includes a sturdy metal ring for easy mounting on a fence or wall, or you can hang it from a branch using the long loop attachment. As solitary bees are non-aggressive, you can safely place these in busy outdoor areas.
Made with natural munja instead of jute; munja is a tough grass (saccharum munja) with great natural water-repellent abilities, and has been sustainably sourced from across India.
Please note that each product is unique, has a different mix of colours, and possesses distinct traits as a result of its handmade nature.
