Dispatch of cocoons will start in October 2025.

Due to changes in eBay listings cocoons can’t be pre-ordered with delayed delivery in 2026. We have enough stock to guarantee availability till end of February 2026 so don’t worry if you want to wait till last minute. The listing will be renewed.

Cocoons will be dispatched with Evri courier on first Monday after purchase to make sure they will arrive in quickest possible time.

Last dispatch will be organised by mid March 2026 due to hatching season start.

All cocoons have been bred in my own garden in UK and kept cool to keep them in top condition through the winter.

If you will decide to buy these before the hatching season you will be responsible for storying them over winter. Please store the cocoons in a cool dry place until it warms up outside. Sheds, garages, gardens are best, anywhere with outside temperature. We don’t recommend fridge as the air is not humid enough and cocoons can dry out.

Short leaflet with instructions and bullet points will be added to your parcel.

Mason bees normally start hatching in March. If you will release them near bee house / hotel tubes it will encourage them to nest in your garden in next season.

These are children and pet safe, sting-less Mason Bees. They are incredibly hard working pollinators of spring fruit trees, flowers, and berries.

Two stage quality check is completed for each cocoon when tubes are opened and just before dispatch. That guarantees each cocoon is full and healthy.
