First time the bees are checking out a new home I built for them

@caalamus Honestly I did not know what an Apiarist was but since looked it up yeah I guess I am a bee keeper. Though they do not produce honey, but pollenate all the plants near by.

Oh yeah? What kinda Bees are they? Carpenters?

Mason bees and Resin bees, both solitary. We have Carpenter bees though they are more destructive and I try not to give them homes.

You handle bees?

Nope, not any more. I live in a City of 210k. I used to live with some Bees though :]

@caalamus luckily solitary bees dont need as much space as honey bees. You can buy the bees and homes for them on ebay and I may start selling them as well.

Since mine dont produce honey I may just build a pollen traps for them as they do collect alot of pollen.
