You can reuse them, but you have to carefully clean the nesting holes. I have professionally made bee houses that I use. The wooden blocks that hold the nesting holes can be removed, opened, and sanitized. This also allows you to harvest cocoons to keep safe from predators/weather for the next year.
Yay! Me too! I had so many different species visit my yard this year. Like 3 different species of big ‘bumble bees’. And so many of the other kind. I like the iridescent green one!! :-D
We have a bee hotel and it’s so damn cute seeing these little solitary bees filling up the holes.
We probably have 20-30 nests.
Ooh I’ve been debating getting one!
What species are they?

I have a little butterfly home, but it got populated by yellow jackets and now I don’t know what to do.
Huh. I thought yellow jackets nest underground.
