Hello friends! Three years ago, my husband and younger son made this insect hotel from scraps of wood. This has been a fun, yet educational activity for our youngest. This little bug hotel provides habitats for various insects and other arthropods while helping to restore ecological balance and biodiversity in our backyard. It’s a great way to attract beneficial insects too!☺️Do you have a bug hotel too, or plan on placing one in your garden? 💚🐞🐛🪲🕷.......#insecthotel #bughotel #inmygardento

Insects are an integral part of a successful garden. Attracting beneficial insects with an insect hotel will help to control pest insects that can overtake your garden. If you attract a range of insects, they will naturally balance each other out over time. Many of your garden’s pollinators are solitary insects like butterflies, moths, ladybugs and solitary bees. These insects do not live in colonies and must find a warm, dry space to build their nests and to hibernate over the winter #bughotel
