amcheesegoblin on 01.08.2024 9:54 AM Have a look at some of your plants to see if little round cuts have been taken out of them as the bees would have got them from nearby
PinJunior7104 on 01.08.2024 10:24 AM Hoverflies in the back garden have made a nest like those in the openings of a tubular chair I sit on.
DamDynatac on 01.08.2024 10:28 AM oh wow what a success! as others have said – leaftcutter bees. You might see one flying around with a piece of a leaf if you’re lucky!
bigfeelingsbuddy on 01.08.2024 11:41 AM I have a big hotel but it’s not really being used. Where is best to put it?
wildskipper on 01.08.2024 12:22 PM That’s amazing! Which part of the country are you in if you don’t mind me asking?
misskinikki on 01.08.2024 12:26 PM You’ll hear the bees cutting the leaves too if you’re lucky. We have them in our garden and they use the same kind of thing.
Anxious_Baker_92 on 01.08.2024 12:34 PM Very lucky! Leaf cutter bees by the looks of it. Would love to see some in mine
Crazyplantmummy on 01.08.2024 12:40 PM Leaf cutter bees as others have said. Mine cut fuscia, wisteria and peony leaves 😊
This_Price_1783 on 01.08.2024 12:41 PM It would be funny if you are the next door neighbour to the person who was asking “what is cutting holes in my rose bushes?”!
Seething-Angry on 01.08.2024 1:38 PM We had a great spotted woodpecker snack on ours. ☹️I recommend mesh on front to prevent this..
TheLambtonWyrm on 01.08.2024 1:42 PM I’ve got the exact same one and it became shelob’s lair. Never seen anything come back out
chaosandturmoil on 01.08.2024 2:00 PM i was going to suggest leaf cutters too. absolutely fantastic. this is exactly what bee hotels were designed for. we need more solo bees.

Looks like leafcutter bees.
Edit. This is a good thing.

They love rose leaves. Definitely leaf cutter bees.
Sleepy bees
