Natural Bee Log

Offer vital nesting places for Solitary Bees.

What is it?
Our National Trust Natural Bee Log is a practical nesting habitat made of natural timber from sustainable forestry. It is filled with natural bamboo nesting tubes to attract pollinating solitary bees and encourage nesting.

How does it help?
We understand that wildlife and the environment work hand in hand. This bee log is the natural home for solitary bees as well as a variety of overwintering insects. Not only does it offer a welcoming nesting space, but it encourages them to pollinate the plants in your garden, which is vital for fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers — benefitting you and the wildlife.

Why buy from us?
Our priority is, and always will be, wildlife. And we care about what we do, so if you want to discuss the bees in your garden or have any questions, give us a call on Freephone 0800 085 4865.

Our Natural Bee Log is of a high-quality and is designed to provide good insulation during winter months. Simply fixing one of these to your garden trees or walls will support our mission to save endangered bees.

We are committed to supporting wildlife conservation as much as possible, so we have FREE Next-Day Delivery* available to most UK postcodes. We also have a large selection of wildlife food and supplies, which attract different species, such as our frog houses, so be sure to mix and match if you hope to increase your garden wildlife diversity.

Sean says: “Many solitary bee species nest in the holes of old dead trees. Lack of natural habitats means there are more bees than nesting opportunities. Adding a natural timber log replicates these missing holes and they are quickly adopted.”
