This talk from Dave Goulson has some great information from a citizen science survey about bee hotels in the UK.
Well worth a watch and if you want to put up a bee hotel in the UK now is a great time to do it.
Bee hotels peak occupancy in the UK is in April and May.
I’ve attached two screenshots from the end of the presentation.
