DIY Bee Hotel Kit
Build Your Own Home For Solitary Bees Or Gift To A Nature Lover!
Welcome solitary bees into your garden and experience their pollinating powers with this DIY Bee Hotel Kit, designed in-house by Beevive's very own Architectural Technician and bee enthusiast Jacob Powell 🐝
Made in the UK from sustainably sourced panguaneta poplar wood, this kit is designed to be posted through your letterbox and constructed at home to provide a safe space for female solitary bees to build nests and lay their eggs.
Solitary bees are a joy to watch. They don't live in colonies (unlike bumblebees and honey bees) and are facing a crisis having lost much of their natural habitat - they need your help!

HELPING THE UK
The UK is currently one of the most nature-depleted countries on the planet. When you shop with WWF, you’re joining a national movement to nurture and replenish the UK’s land, rivers, seascapes and wildlife.
PROTECTING UK WILDLIFE
From puffins to bluebells, bumblebees to mountain hares, UK wildlife is feeling the heat from climate change and struggling to adapt. Our 2024 manifesto highlights that a quarter of UK mammals, including red squirrels, hedgehogs and wildcats, are now at risk of extinction. Together, we can ensure that we support our climate, nature and food security whenever we use our land and seas. By applying pressure on government and decision makers, we believe we can rewire our economy to be nature and climate-positive, by changing how we heat our homes, our travel and the way we grow and buy our food.
Wild Ingleborough
WWF is working on a visionary landscape-scale restoration project known as Wild Ingleborough, hoping to return an iconic area in the Yorkshire Dales to its former glory. So far, an incredible 65,000 trees have been planted, building a better future for the UK’s uplands and species that live there.
