In Summer, solitary bees have made or found nests
and are busy provisioning a succession of cells with nectar and pollen, each cell laid with a single egg.
Because they fly earlier and later in the day and are so hairy,
many bumblebee and solitary bee species are
more efficient pollinators than even the honeybee (Apis mellifera).
Bumblebees nest at ground level in tussocky grass and below ground in pre-existing holes.
Gardeners can help by not cutting back and tidying up everywhere;
leave some warm, sheltered areas of rough grass and moss for the bees.
Occasionally bumblebees nest in unusual places such as bird boxes,
compost heaps or under sheds. Artificial nests can be provided, but are rarely successful.

I'll give it a go with the drilled wood, might even attract something unexpected.

Cheers Skalla!
I assumed that you were "canny wi' the wild"
The "tips" were not really meant to insult your wisdom,
rather in general posting, what I had thought of after posting the thread.
For the less "plants 'n' stuff" readers on ats,
should any accidently stumble upon this forgotten, forlorn weed of an appeal to mankind.
Love the Manowar version.

Can't find the Village People version anywhere.
Are you sure that wasn't a dream?
