Openable, Pest-Resistant Nesting for Spring Mason Bees
The combined thickness of these BeeTubes and Inserts helps stop most parasitic wasp attacks, creating a healthy nesting space for your Mason bees. They meet the Crown Bees BeeSafe™ Standard and support BeeSafe™ Seasonal Care, so you can keep the BeeTubes for next year and replace only the inserts each season.
