Product Instructions

Bees like to nest where bees have nested before and InvitaBee makes your nesting materials smell like home. Each InvitaBee^TM kit contains 1.5ml of InvitaBee^TM pheromone spray and five natural reeds—included as a visual attractant for your bees.

The formula for InvitaBee^TM Spray Leafcutter Bee Attractant was developed by Crown Bees and Crown Bees holds the USDA patent license for the InvitaBee^TM Plus+ Mason Bee Attractant, this pheromone is an attractant for all Osmia bee species (about 350 worldwide.) Each vial of InvitaBee^TM attractant includes about 20 sprays and is generally enough for two bee houses. The scent lasts for about three weeks, which is ample time for attracting nesting bees.

Apply InvitaBee^TM immediately prior to the release of your bee cocoons. 

• Use InvitaBee^TM Plus+ Mason Bee Attractant on the front of 8mm sized nesting cavities.
• Use InvitaBee^TM Spray Leafcutter Bee Attractant on the front of 6mm sized nesting cavities.

 Instructions

• Wear gloves. InvitaBee^TM is not toxic, but let's just say that only bees would regard its odor as a delightful perfume.
• Lightly and evenly spray InvitaBee^TM on the open ends of the five reeds included in your kit. 
• Place reeds with open ends facing out as far back as possible into the bee house.
• Lightly spray the front of the rest of your nesting materials.
• After the bees have completed their flying season, place the reeds in a BeeGuard^TM Bag until harvest.
• Store the remaining InvitaBee attractant in a cool, dark location. InvitaBee^TM has a two-year shelf life.

We do not recommend reusing reeds because pest and disease buildup can kill your bee house population.

How to Open Natural Reeds

• Pinch the open or capped end of the reed and the reed will begin to split.
• Carefully pull the reed apart.
