Love Your Flowers, Fruits and Trees, Make Room for Solo Bees!
Increase crop yields, flowers blooms for a happy, healthy landscape.
Solitary Native Bees live alone, rarely sting and lay their eggs in a tunnel nest.
Responsible for our flowers, food and trees, it is important we help the bees.
But, over the past few decades habitat loss and pesticide use has caused a steep decline in native bees. One way you can help is to give a bee a home. Simply set out a bee shelter and give a female bee a nest site.

How a SoloBee Shelter works
Solitary (solo) native bees live alone, rarely sting and lay their eggs in a tunnel nest. With no large hive to defend, the female very rarely stings. Her life is filled with collecting pollen for her nest, and that is when she pollinates making her the best pollinators on the earth, better than bats, butterflies and honey bees. She will fill her tunnel nest with pollen and eggs, then she caps the door and dies. A year later her young will emerge to repeat the cycle. Native bees are everywhere, so set out a home and invite them in. More bees, more food and more flowers.
