Handcrafted by Garradh Landscape & Design, our Douglas Fir Bee Stick is a simple yet powerful way to support biodiversity in your garden. Made from sustainably sourced, untreated Douglas Fir, each unit relies solely on the wood’s natural oils for durability—no chemicals, no preservatives, just pure timber, responsibly sourced.

Each hole is carefully drilled to a depth of 6–10cm, providing optimal shelter for solitary bees such as red mason bees, leafcutter bees, and mining bees. The smooth, precise bore avoids splinters that can damage delicate wings, making it a safe, reliable space for nesting.

But it’s not just for bees—this bee stick also offers refuge for other vital garden allies, including:

• Lacewings (natural aphid predators)

• Ladybirds (great for pest control)

• Hoverflies (important pollinators)

Pairing your bee stick with a bespoke bee- and pollinator-friendly planting schedule makes it even more effective. We offer tailored planting plans that combine native perennials, flowering herbs, and succession blooms—creating a thriving habitat that supports pollinators across the entire growing season.
