This will be used in conjunction with the main tube holders, so I am happy to have them.

Excellent product as unit very sturdy, provides protection from predictors as tubes are not flush with protective covering, and web site provided instruction on how to hang was perfect.

I was dubious that a bunch of cardboard tubes stuck under the garage eaves would attract bees, but ... Darn if the mason bees aren't busy filling up the nesting tubes, the very first year I put these things up! I appreciate both the simplicity and durability of the unit, and the ease of installation. I'll be ordering the refill tubes come fall, to get ready for next spring.

I have found Kinsman standard and jumbo nest kits the most appropriate, easy to use, economical, and durable means by which to host Mason bees at the house, in the garden, and at public venues. I've tried other, more expensive, products over the last 3-4 years, and the Kinsman units are my choice by far.

Several years ago I had my mason bee population decimated by voles. They are almost all of the larvae before they could develop into the next season's bee population. That is when I bought my first set of mason bee homes from Kinsman. Since then I have made a succession of purchases made necessary by the successful expansion of the population from year to year.

I ordered a second mason bee house after finding one of the tubes sealed up! I suspect it must be Leaf Cutter Bee because of the timing (early August) of the nest. These are so easy to put up and work great, I'm betting I get loads more bees next year : )

Our county now allows tax exemption for mason or carpenter bees on your acreage. These work perfectly for our tax exemption.

I purchased this for my daughter, who is a Junior Girl Scout, to complete her animal habitat badge. It is perfect! Thank you!

I ordered the mason bee house filled with tubes and, can't wait until summer so I can put it up. The honey bees were very scarce this spring but the masons were everywhere!

I purchased two Kinsman Garden mason bees nest kits and extra tubes, to help out the mason bees here. The order came quickly, I very much liked the price, and once received liked the product as well. It is a way for me to start to help rather than wait to make something which was not happening. Now I am ready for spring to set the nests out and see how many takers I get. I have local authorities for any specifics I might need once I get the 'show on the road'! Looking forward to helping the mason bees to do their jobs better! :)

Bees showed up and filled all the nest tubes in the very first season. Their numbers have increased for the past three years. Great idea and a real conversation starter in the garden!

Here's a straightforward way to help the bees, It's attractive and easy to install. We put our first unit up a week ago with many flowers the bees love nearby, but haven't observed any bees there yet.
