How to Build a Mason Bee Hive
Materials needed:
Someone to supervise and/or help (optional), 
A hook or string (to hang the bee box), 
A Skill saw or any other power saw (if you have a piece of wood bigger than a 4x4x6 block of wood) 
The first step is that you need to draw dots of where to drill the holes for the bees. The holes should be spaced 3/4 in. apart and at least sixteen holes on a box.
Put on your safety goggles! The next step is that you have to put on the 5/16" drill bits on to your drill and start drilling in the holes where you drew the dots. The holes should about as deep as the drill head.
The third step is that you have to use your hook or string to hang up the bee box on a tree branch.
