Little bug home for bumble bees

I'm intrusted in making a small bumble bee bug home as it seems they are in big decline in Europe with all meadows turning in to motorways or housing states and pesticides that's around,
Like to try and make one to put at back of garden if anyone knows how or what to use
Ones from supermarkets don't seem to work I tried last year as spiders keep talking home in them.

It might not work since you need a queen bee to start the colony. Sadly it's not easy to find them if you don't know where to look. :/
I also hope you managed to get something useful into your nest. :)
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
