Provide artificial nest sites for solitary bees
Taki et al. (2008) put six cardboard tube/milk carton nest boxes in each of eight forest sites in Norfolk County, southern Ontario, Canada from summer 2003 to November 2004. They recorded 12 wasp species and two species of parasitic wasp, but no bee species nesting in the boxes.
