Greenkey 664 Solitary Bee and Wasp House - Brown

Possibly the best and most affordable bee "condo" that I've got so far. Why? Excellent finish and by this I mean the bamboo tubes and the smaller "wasp" holes. Nearly / nearly all of them are clean and without stray splinters sticking into the tubes. These splinters are often what deter bees from using the tubes - they get stuck !With care and without using any preservatives, they should last 2 maybe 3 seasons if sheltered from the winter weather - or put in a shed etc over winter and back in the garden before / before it gets too warm. End March maybe?

No idea why Amazon asks if this is warm. I've no idea but it's a lovely bee house and I'm sure they will be happy with it. I love the design and it's excellent for a small garden and makes a good present.

OK quality for what I paid. The bees seemed to prefer our older bee box.Some wildlife charities recommend replacing the used tubes after they hatch as they can contain dead bees and mites, but at this price it would be easier and cheaper to just throw the old one away and buy another.Looks better when painted with Cuprinol.

Really good value. I have a couple of Bee Hotels already and thought that my little solitary bees could do with some more rooms.I put this up on the same fence and within an hour of it being installed, I had visitors inspecting and moving in. The bees are using it, and I am looking forward to seeing lots of little bees flying out of their new accommodation.**Update - one of my bee hotels has been closed. Due to woodpecker damage. Think the only thing that would keep that away would be steel plates all over it!

It was ok, but there was a screw missing on the hook and the tubes were loose and fell out at the top, not what you would expect, after mending it looks ok

Really well made, looks great. I bought one as a gift and have since bought another for my own garden.

Not the best quality, but the bees 🐝 love it and that’s what’s important.

Lovely little bee house. Good value for money. Only just put it out so I can’t comment on how it will weather, but for the amount I paid compared to others I’m very happy.
