Leafcutter bee nesting block - 9 Tray - 104 holes

Leafcutter bee nesting block - 9 Tray - 104 holes

  • 9 wood trays that stack upon each other, creating 104 holes that are each 1/4" (6mm) in diameter.
  • These trays have previously been used by the Leafcutter bee industry and retain the bee's scent which is attractive to nesting bees.
  • Designed for about 300  leafcutter cocoons.
  • Wood is a natural habitat for leafcutter bees and provides both natural insulation qualities as well as moisture control. Wood has a natural wicking effect that pulls moisture from the wet pollen & leaf mass.
  • The nesting trays are easy to extract cocoons and are easily cleaned and reassembled. This is important during fall harvest.
  • These rugged nesting trays are re-usable which controls year-to-year costs.
  • Each tray has side notches that lock into neighboring trays, retain alignment, and help block pests from entering on the side.
  • The front of the wood trays are painted black to increase the heat for morning flight of the bees.
  • Each block includes two bands to hold trays tightly together.
  • A removable cardboard back panel and polyester parasite blocker mat assists the leafcutter bees by keeping their holes predator-resistant. 
  • 3 1/2" tall X 5 1/4" wide x 4 1/2" deep
