Why Bee Bricks?
Did you know that solitary bees pollinate ⅓ of our food? This makes protecting them a crucial environmental responsibility.
Sadly, the number of solitary bees is plummeting. Reasons include the destruction of their habitats, the use of insecticides, and diseases.
By using bee bricks, we help create nesting places for red mason bees, leafcutter bees, and other types of solitary bees.
