I'm interested in constructing some bumble bee nests for next years
use. Does anyone have plans or tips for their construction?

I also have a left over reptile heater. Would this device be a good
addition to the nest or would it cause the bumblebees difficulties with
their metabolism?

Please don't refer me to a commercial site that sells bumble bee
houses. I have no interest in spending too much money on something that
I'd enjoy constructing myself.
