Sadly the Bumble Bee is in decline and this Tom Chambers Bumble Bee Nester can help to encourage more of these valuable pollinating insects into the garden. Bumble Bees hardly ever sting but they help set the fruit of many plants and make sitting in the garden a more enjoyable experience. As well as providing a shelter like the Bumble Bee Nester, we can also help by planting more flowers which provide the bees with pollen and nectar.
Line the Bumble Bee Nester with nesting material such as cardboard or dry moss, or best of all, an old mouse nest, if you can find one! Site the box in early spring, ready for the queen bee coming out of hibernation, on the ground or on a low wall, in a sunny, souith facing, sheltered position
The lid of the box is hinged to make viewing easy. Bumble Bees do not swarm and will not sting unless severely provoked
Dimensions: 30cm x 22cm x 21cm. Usually Next Day delivery if ordered by 12 noon (Mon-Thurs)
