PaperTunnel Liners for whole nest management  
We offer three styles of paper liners: opaque white, brown kraft and Pre-slit.  All fit in our Binderboard® tunnels.
Opaque white and kraft:  Thin, to minimize reduction in the tunnel diameter; coated to minimize absorption of water from provisions in the nest.
Pre-slit:  Same as opaque white, but pre-slit lengthwise so you can open them quickly for cleaning or parasite removal.  The slit gives you a quick view of nest contents, and saves time if you work with lots of liners. 
(Note:  translucent liners are no longer available.) 

For larger quantities, contact Pollinator Paradise for a price quote.

Mesh Bag for control of chalcid parasites 

After fruit bloom when orchard bees are finished nesting, store your Binderboard® in a mesh bag to prevent chalcid parasites from attacking the nests.  Also keeps other tunnel nesting species of bees and wasps from using unfilled tunnels.  Large holds two 56 or 104-hole Binderboard®.  Small holds one 16-hole Binderboard®, one 56-hole Binderboard® without roof, or about 300 filled straw liners.  Made of white organza.  Hand wash.
Large $4.95  Small $2.25 each
