home sweet home for bugs

spacer
£9.95 inc. VAT

Make a cute little cottage-style insect house for bugs and creepy-crawlies, and help them survive the winter.

Pick a warm and sheltered spot for your insect house, making sure that it won't be blown away by wind or fill with rain water, and wait for your guests to move in.

   

Quantity:   
 


                         
Dimensions: 142 x 100 x 53mm

The insect house is easy to assemble, and the parts come in a handy reusable tin.

Making an insect house is a great way to get interested in the wildlife in your back garden.

  • Contents: wooden pieces, bamboo tubes and glue for easy assembly


What else can I do to help insects?
  • Make sure your garden isn't too tidy! Dead stems from plants and shrubs like buddleia and elder make good winter homes for adult insects and larvae.
  • Dead leaves and log piles are also good places for insects to shelter in cold weather.
  • Small holes in the mortar in brick walls are great places for bugs to camp out, if you are re-pointing your walls, try and leave some gaps in unobtrusive places.
  • Sunny areas of bare earth are perfect for solitary bees and wasps to make burrows, try and leave some areas free for them.
