Paper High Hexagonal Recycled Cotton Insect & Bee House

From Paper High, this hexagonal insect and bee house offers a considered way to support solitary bees and other beneficial insects, while adding a distinctive handcrafted detail to your outdoor space. Designed as a cosy shelter, it can be placed in a garden, on a balcony, or against a sunny wall to encourage pollinators to nest.

Skilfully made by Fair Trade artisans in India, each nester combines recycled metal, salvaged cotton, sustainable bamboo tubes and natural munja. Chosen instead of jute, munja is a tough grass (saccharum munja) with natural water-repellent abilities and is sustainably sourced from across India. Due to its handmade nature, every piece features a different mix of colours and individual characteristics.

For best results, position in a sheltered, sunny spot near pollen-rich flowers. A sturdy metal ring allows easy mounting on a fence or wall, while the long loop attachment lets you hang it from a branch. Solitary bees are non-aggressive, making this a suitable choice for busy outdoor areas.
