(Only six) Mason Bee Fun Facts

Eloise
  • Mason bees are super pollinators! One mason bee can pollinate as many flowers in one day as it takes 100 honeybees to do in one day!!

  • Mason bees are solitary bees, which means that they don’t live in a colony.

  • In general mason bees are smaller than honeybees and bumblebees.

  • Not all mason bees have yellow and black stripes.

  • Mason bees only sting if squeezed, and if you get stung the sting has no venom unlike most bees.

  • Mason bees are called mason bees because they use mud to seal off their egg chambers.
