3D model description

In the exploration of 3D printing applications to help nature, here is the latest find.

The bug house.

The utility of this model is the preservation of pollinators, key players in biodiversity.

Solitary bees build their nests by themselves and lay their eggs in tunnels, such as dead wood or hard ground.

The bug house mimics these conditions.

Easy to make, this model is designed to be printed without support.

Height 140 mm (5.5')

Width 90 mm (3.5')

depth 120 mm (4.7')

Then all that remains is to fill the interior with hollow plant stems (bamboo, reed, etc ...).

Your bee house should be placed in full sun, facing south-east or south.

Suitable for :

Balcony/roof, Small garden, Big garden, Medium garden

You can suspend it (do not swing it too much, avoid branches) or hang it on a screw (6 mm diameter).

Southern exposure is recommended.

The ideal is to be able to expose themselves to the sun in the morning because they are cold-blooded and need the warmth of the sun to take off in the morning.
