Bee hotels are manufactured specifically to allow native solitary bees (ones that nest on the ground or in small gaps or hollows in timber or stone), to have a little rest and deposit eggs. Due to the large reduction of specific trees in Australia, the environment that Bee Hotels provide to our natives has become rarer for bees to chance on naturally. Installing a Bee hotel not only allows you to look after our vulnerable native bee species, but it also is quite the interesting and aesthetic feature to place in your garden!
Other insects that may reside in your Bee Hotel are Ladybird Beetles and Butterflies!
