Also please check whether honey bees are native in your area. If they're not (or if there's too many of them) it leads to decline of other bee species and threatens other pollinators and rare plant species.

Not sure what that has to do with my comment? Bee hotels are for solitary bees, not honey bees. Exactly what we want!

Yep, sorry. Still I kind of think it's worth repeating over and over, so treat it as not aimed at you :)
