If you’re looking to make more space for nature then the Bee Brick® solitary bee house is for you. Great for garden lovers, design lovers and nature lovers, the Bee Brick® is an innovative nesting site for solitary bees, created to look lovely just stood in your garden, with the innovation that the brick can also be used in place of a standard brick in construction, creating more habitat for non-swarming solitary bees.

Solitary bees are fascinating to watch and a wonderful way to introduce kids to bees, solitary bees have no queen or honey to protect, meaning they are non-aggressive and won’t sting.

More information

Bee Brick® is solid at the back and has moulded cavities where the bees will lay their eggs, sealing the entrance with mud or chewed up vegetation. Offspring emerge in the Spring and begin the process of nesting again, repeating the cycle.

Solitary bees are facing a dramatic decline in numbers due to disease, an increase in chemical use and habitat loss. Pollinators account for 1/3 of the food we eat and are a vital part of our environment. The Bee Brick® can be used in urban spaces and places where there may not be alternative nesting sites for bees, either built into a wall or building or simply stood alone in a garden or allotment. Solitary bees are harmless and will not sting you unless you handle them roughly, even then their stings are not painful, meaning they are safe to encourage around pets and children.

Disappointed with Beebrick

Beebrick arrived impeccably packed but very disappointed in the finish . The yellow brick was very pitted from air bubbles and especially on the word itself . I wanted mine free standing so a decent finish was important to me . I did point this out at the time of ordering . Green and Blue have replied to my email and offered me a free replacement . So that will make me very happy when it arrives as they are checking this one first before sending it out.

Great Quality

Not yet had these installed but they look great. Night weight and really good quality, looking forward to handing them over to the brickie when he's ready for them.
