So far Martyn has made two - one for us and one for my sister - he now has one to make for the plot!<br /><br />Hello Craig - I'd now like a ladybird log but it needs to have an hollowed out central chamber!!

I guess our motel will be unused this year as they probably lay eggs between April and July. Apparently you can tell if the nesting holes are occupied as the bees seal them and leave after they lay the eggs. Maybe some other insect such as a ladybird may use it over winter.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-48789216449321452642010-07-31T13:23:03.195+00:002010-07-31T13:23:03.195+00:00Great idea for a solitary bee house.

Or should they live there all the time? I haven’t noticed a lot of bees around my bee-house.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
