Product information "Animal house for wild bees | nesting aid for solitary bee species"
A valuable nesting aid for solitary wild bee species
This animaly house provides nesting opportunities for bees. There are over 300 wild bee species in Central Europe. Many of them rely on nesting tubes, such as feeding tunnels in deadwood or hollow plant stems. Unfortunately, such natural nesting opportunities are becoming increasingly rare in nature.
Beneficial in your garden
However, nesting aids like this bee hotel from GARDIGO are readily accepted by these beneficial insects. In the garden, bees pollinate fruit trees and flowers – and often more reliably than the common honeybee. Wild bees start flying as early as March, when it’s still too cold for honeybees. They are also active in less favorable weather conditions. Orchardists are well aware of this and often provide targeted nesting sites for species important to fruit production.
Promote biodiversity in your garden!
The Animal House bee hotel, however, is not that selective – and that’s exactly the point, because biodiversity should be encouraged. That’s why GARDIGO uses bamboo as a natural nesting material. Bamboo canes naturally have varying diameters, offering suitable nesting tubes for many different species of wild bees.
Insects stay inside the tubes throughout the year
In winter, when bees are no longer flying, their brood remains well protected inside the tubes. For this reason, you should leave the bee hotel outdoors during the winter and avoid converting your Animal House as long as bees are still using the tubes.
Only when the insects are no longer interested in the house should you remove the bamboo – either to replace it or to install a different front panel.
Accessory included
As with every GARDIGO Animal House, a tree-friendly nail is included, allowing you to safely hang the nesting aid outdoors.
Made in a sheltered workshop
This product is made in a workshop for people with disabilities in Germany. Here, individuals have the opportunity to learn a profession and participate in working life within a protected environment.
Made in Germany
German made products not only have a high quality. Unlike nesting aids, birdhouses, and insect hotels imported from distant countries, transport distances are short. This results in significantly lower CO₂ and pollutant emissions compared to products from Asia.

Es summt
Total Super! Ich achte sehr auf meine Umwelt und bin froh wenigstens einen paar Lebewesen einen Unterschlupf gewähren zu können. Ein paar Bienen sind schon drin, was mich sehr freut
