  • Handcrafted Quality: Each reed is meticulously hand-cut and gathered, guaranteeing authenticity and durability.
  • Natural Node Seal: Featuring a natural node at one end, each reed is effectively sealed against parasitic wasps and other pests, safeguarding the nesting space.
  • Easy Harvesting: Come spring, harvesting cocoons is a breeze. Simply crack open the end of the reed with your fingers and gently pull it apart to reveal cocoons and identify any potential pests.
  • Versatile Habitat: Perfect for summer leafcutter bees, as well as wild cavity-nesting bees and beneficial solitary wasps, our natural reeds provide a welcoming sanctuary for a variety of pollinators.

Enhance your garden's biodiversity and support solitary bee populations with our premium-quality natural reeds.

Product Instructions

  • Hold reeds in one hand with open ends facing out. Nature is not about straight lines and mussing the reeds up with some sticking out further than others makes it easier for the bee to identify which reed is hers. 
  • Insert them into the bee house as far back as possible to protect them from the elements.
  • After the bees have completed their flying season, place the reeds in a BeeGuardTM Pest Prevention Bag until harvest.

How to Open Natural Reeds

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