Dimensions of Our Bee Supplies!


People love to build their own mason bee house and we get asked all the time if we just rent nesting blocks and bees. Yes!! Yes we do!! Come visit our store to order sterilized nesting blocks and super clean and healthy bees!
Best size diameter for nesting holes:
- Mason bee nests – 8mm diameter and 6″ long
- Leafcutter bee nests – 6mm diameter and 3″ long
- Our stacking trays are made with alder. If you make your own stacking trays make sure you do not use wood that is treated or have chemicals. This will harm developing bees.
Our PVC emergence tubes are 1 inch pipe, 6” long with two caps on the end and an 8mm hole drilled on one end.
