Opening Mason Bee Nesting Straws, Part Two 

Thank you SO much for making this process seem less overwhelming and scary😍

Thank you for this series of videos on Mason bees. We're using them to show our Cub Scouts how to care for Mason bees for their conservation project and they're so easy to understand. Very nicely done.

excellent video, you got yourself another NEW Mason Bee parent! These are perfect for low maintenance keepers, I wanted to help but Honeybees are not the only Bees in town!

Very informative. Thank you.

Thank you for the information.

The male probably dies with a smile on his face....lol! Hilarious!! Thank you for the video :)

A big Thank you for sharing your knowledge and enlightening me today. I am going to look into this fascinating subject more. Can you please tell me how you make the straws. I live in the UK. Kind regards Marc

Hello, where can I purchase those tubes with the white straws? Thanks

Fascinating

Please tell me where you purchase the straws?

We’re can you order the nesting straws?

I found white larva I my tubes in VERY thin cocoons with mud plugs in between larva. It's early November in Northern Michigan and the ends have been plugged since the July/August time frame. Any ideas on what these might be?

How do you get them out if you haven't used the paper tubes ??

Can you make your own attractants? - eg: for honey bees, you can use lemon grass, what can you use for BOBs? thanks!

Do you wash yours like I saw on Crown Bees video? Where do you get the replacement tubes?

Do you have to remove the bees every fall or can you just leave them in their nests?

I am hard of hearing and use the closed caption which a lot of which you keep showing at the bottom of you video is covered with the closed caption. Otherwise very nice videos.

lots of detail; no overview as to how these bees are used.
