You can encourage them by bundling short lengths of hollow cane
together and hanging the bundle from a tree.


No encouragement needed as we're surrounded by many hedges and trees
etc. However, I will now handle the bamboo canes we use with great
respect and care!

Not really neccesary, leafcutters are quite docile and not nearly as
aggressive as other bees, moreover, their sting isn't as painful neither.
