Mason bees sealed up,
Riding out the cold winter,
Sleeping in their house.

I'm near Seattle, Washington, USA. It is time to start harvesting my #masonbees. I have to pull all the tubes and remove all the cocoons, get rid of predators, wash, and store for the winter.

If you don't harvest your Mason bee cocoons in fall? Believe it or not, straight to jail.

If you like bugs spinning cocoons in holes, stand by. I'll start harvesting #masonbees next month.
