Green&Blue Bee Brick – Perfectly Imperfect Sale

The Perfectly Imperfect Sale is your chance to buy a Bee Brick at a fraction of the usual price. Please note that the Bee Brick you receive will have cosmetic imperfections, such as small chips, scuffs, air bubbles or surface marks.

Green&Blue Bee Bricks are manufactured in our Cotswold workshop, and occasionally they do not come out as perfect as expected. Strict quality control checks mean some products don’t meet the usual visual standards to be boxed. This may be due to a larger-than-usual air bubble, a small chip on a corner, scuffs, or other cosmetic marks.

These imperfections mean the products do not pass our quality control standards for full-price sale, but they still work perfectly for wildlife and still look great in the garden.

The Perfectly Imperfect sale is our chance to clear our workshop stock while offering you a Bee Brick at up to 50% off the normal price. If you are happy to accept a little extra character, it’s a simple way to make more space for nature at a great price!

Stock is limited and available only while sale items remain.

About the Bee Brick

The Bee Brick is a simple, effective way to create nesting habitat for solitary bees within gardens, walls and buildings. Designed to be used either freestanding or built directly into brickwork, it replaces lost nesting sites and helps support vital pollinators in both urban and rural environments.

The Bee Brick is solid at the back, ensuring bees do not enter buildings, and features moulded cavities at the front where bees lay their eggs. Entrances are sealed by the bees using mud or chewed vegetation. New bees emerge in spring and the nesting cycle begins again.

Solitary bees do not have a queen or produce honey and are non-swarming and non-aggressive, making them safe to encourage around children and pets.

Construction

The Bee Brick is designed to be integrated directly into brickwork as part of new builds, extensions or retrofit projects. Installed in place of a standard brick using mortar, it adds nesting habitat without changing the footprint, strength or appearance of a structure.

It can be used in external property walls, boundary walls and landscaping features, and is also suitable for use as a freestanding unit in gardens or allotments. The solid back ensures bees cannot enter the building fabric.

Siting & Installation

For best results, Bee Bricks should be installed in a warm, sunny position facing south or south-east, where they will receive morning sun. They should be positioned at least 1 metre above ground level, with no maximum height. Research has shown significantly higher uptake at heights above 1 metre.
