Mason Bee Harvest Service
$95.00
Send Us Your Cocoons—We’ll Do the Rest
Harvest Service will be open from October 1 to December 15, 2025.
Support your Mason bees with expert care each fall. Our Harvesting Service removes pests, improves cocoon health, and safely overwinters your bees—so they’re ready to thrive next spring.
Note: All levels of the harvest service are for batches up to 250 reeds/inserts only - no wood trays. If you have 250+ filled reeds or wood trays, consider hosting a backyard harvest party get-together and giving your extra cocoons to nearby family and friends.
All Service Levels Include:
- Cocoon Harvesting & Cleaning: We perform gentle hand harvesting and meticulous cleaning to ensure your cocoons are free from debris and mold.
- Pest Removal: We effectively remove common threats like pollen mites, Houdini flies, and fungal infections using eco-friendly solutions, such as our Clean Bee™ solution, a safe bleach alternative.
- Climate-Controlled Storage: Your cocoons are safely stored in our climate-controlled cooler to ensure optimal conditions during overwintering.
- Free Return Shipping: We ship healthy cocoons via FREE FedEx 2-day shipping in the spring.
