Mason Bee House -Wax Coated Mason House for The Garden, Natural Handmade Wooden Waterproof Mason Home, Attracts Peaceful Bee Pollinators,Native Mason Bee Habitat

Super cute for the garden. We have mason bees and other pollinators so I love the size and the sturdiness of the bee house.

i hung on a nail using the back bracket but also secured to fence post with top jute. waxed to protect from weather. suppose to face sunrise since bees need to warm in the morning. mine is currently facing west. i suppose i could try locating on a tree facing east...? but this house is very solid. might need to get a bird barrier as i believe woodpeckers may attempt to feed on bees living here. i have a camera focused on the house to watch how it goes.

The media could not be loaded. This Mason Butterfly, Bee, and Bug house is thoughtfully constructed and very well made. It also makes for a charming addition to any backyard or garden area. It is coated in beeswax to increase its weather-ability. If one does decide to paint, be sure to investigate that whatever paint or stain used is not toxic to the guests this house is trying to attract. We are looking forward to seeing the new home owners!

EDIT: The company followed up with me extensively to try to figure out what happened and how to remedy the problem. They sent me a new bee house in hopes that the one I originally received was an anomaly. I feel confident they have a real interest in providing a quality product. Customer Service has been excellent. I have not yet hung the replacement in the garden but, at first glance, it does appear to be more sturdy.I have spent years getting rid on non native and invasive plants on my property and replacing with natives to help the pollinators and other critters have a more balanced ecosystem. I added this little house because it could prove useful and look cute. Pollinators started using it immediately so I was thrilled. Unfortunately, after a few weeks the brackets holding the rope used to hang it just popped off and it dropped to the ground and broke apart. Great idea, looks great, just not well made.

Well made, waxed, best suitable protected from direct sun and weather like under the eve of a shed or underside of a large tree limb. Like them so much, bought more for gifts for neighbors.

I purchased this in April of 2023, and it has been outside ever since—and let me tell you, it has truly stood the test of time! While not every hole has been used, each year seems to bring new visitors and fresh activity. It’s been incredible to watch bees find a safe place to land, and sometimes even make their homes here.For anyone looking to provide a welcoming space for bees while keeping things affordable, this is a fantastic option. It’s durable, functional, and has become a quiet joy in my garden. Highly recommend!

While this is a cute, affordable house, don't expect it to last long! The wax job is poor, which doesn't make it weatherproof, and the construction is not sturdy. However, this heavy house did come pre-assembled. It's about the size I would have expected.Pros: Affordable, Birdhouse size, pre-assembledCons: Poor wax job, not very weatherproof, not constructed well, and if you want to hang it by its back, you may come across some difficulty.

Looks great and attaches to house easily. My bees haven't woken up yet, so I can't tell if they like it yet.
