Valuable contribution to the protection of beneficial organisms.

Wild bees – already an endangered animal – find shelter and lots of space to breed in this block. Thanks to the holes with different diameters, several species of wild bees can take domicile here. Highly beneficial ichneumon flies which food on plant lice also find shelter here.

Selecting a location:  Hang up in a wind-sheltered, dry place, oriented towards the south-east if possible.

Note: This breeding device remains in the garden the entire year – closed holes must not be opened.
