ABSTRACT:
A standing length of untreated deadwood timber, having a 2″-6″ diameter and an above ground length of between 3′ and 9′, has a flattened face with sets of different diameter holes drilled therein. Colorful ribbons, in addition to the aroma of the decaying deadwood, attract multiple species of native solitary bees to the bee pole to use the holes to lay eggs therein. The pole is planted 1.5 to 2′ in soil adjacent fields, gardens or orchards which need pollination.
