I have a useful tip for you if you are interested in helping our bee co-inhabitants thrive. Bee hotels are wonderful safe havens, yet with many commercial bee hotels you cannot remove the glued in nesting materials to be easily cleaned. This leads to an increase in the risk of parasitic wasps, flies, mites, fungi, bacteria, and viruses inhabiting the space over time. You should ideally empty out and clean your bee house every year or two. To do this, remove the filled nesting tubes in the fall or at the end of the season. Clean the trays. Restock your house with fresh nesting trays, paper tubes, blocks, and reeds. It’s ready to put out again toward the end of winter.
