Dear K,
You inquired about bees and i have suddenly a great many so please find the orchard mason critters -- soon to bee -- on your doorstep:
" a warm sunny building wall with protection from wind and rain is perfect. In most parts of the country we recommend a south facing wall. "
There are two nails in with the cocoons with the girls and the boys up in the attic that hopefully haven't been to shook up.
Hammer in the nails wherever appropriate a plum 1-5/8" apart then
"when daytime highs are reaching some 50 degrees with consistency take the bees out of the fridge, ... hang the chalet on the nails
sit back now, and let Mother Nature take over! "
if they shake on out, and don't all find somewhere near they like better...
"the trays of the bee chalet may be gently eased apart to allow easy extraction of the liner straws every winter and the trays can then be cleaned with soap and water, ready for reassembly and new liners the following spring."
