The timing of decocooning and nesting during the flowering period are crucial for the reproduction and pollination activities of Osmia excavata . In order to improve the pollination efficiency of O . excavata , it is crucial to find a way to break the cocoon quickly. Our results showed that the decocooning rates at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 h after 30 min of water immersion (WI) were 28.67%, 37.33%, 37.33%, 41.33%, 44.33%, and 53.00%, respectively. The decocooning rate fold of 6 h was 14.33 compared with the control group...
