Beepole Lodge
"A Live Colony of Native Bumble Bees"The Beepol Lodge, a live, moveable colony of native pollinating bumble bees (species: Bombus, Terrestris and Audax) for the garden, orchard, vegetable plot, or simply for education and interest.
Purchasing the Beepol Lodge comes complete with a voucherfor a colony into your wooden lodge and open a small inner door, soon the worker bumble bees will be out to investigate and shortly afterwards will get active in your garden.
Bumble bees are great pollinators and will increase your fruit, vegetable and flower crops, they are widely used in commercial horticulture for this purpose. They can be working in poor dull weather when other bees are not around. They are the most popular of bees.
The Lodge features an inner doorway which can be set to allow only incoming bees, thus, if required, allowing movement of the hive at night to a new pollinating area. In the late autumn the workers will die off and new queens will overwinter underground. Replacement colonies for the Beepol Lodge are available annually.
