The insect hotel offers you the possibility to settle different wild bees and many other beneficial insects directly in your garden. Against the background of changing landscapes with fewer and fewer natural nesting sites and the associated reduction in insect diversity, you can make a valuable contribution to nature conservation. In addition, your garden also benefits from the small residents of the nesting aid, which excel at pollinating your plants and controlling pests. The nesting aid for various insect species can be easily set up in the garden. The beehive is made of sturdy pine wood (Pinus sylvestris, main type of wood) from FSC®-certified ֒ forestry and contains high-quality natural filling materials such as reeds, pine cones, birch branches and wood wool. It is made by hand in a European production process, with a focus on high -quality workmanship. Once inhabited, the "Alabama" insect hotel offers a great view and ensures active crawling and buzzing in your garden.

This handcrafted bumblebee house to encourage beneficial insects into your garden. This solitary bee and wasp house provides the ideal nesting habitat for many of the over 200 species of solitary bee found in the UK. Solitary bees hardly ever sting people. They lay their eggs in the tubes which are sealed in with a parcel of food made from either cut leaves or mud. The eggs change to larvae and then pupae which hatch out into new bees the following spring. Ideally, insect houses should be located on a South, South East or South-West facing wall, fence or tree trunk in a sheltered position close to, but not obscured by, vegetation. This insect house was designed in collaboration with the UK's leading insect charity - Buglife.
This handcrafted bumblebee house to encourage beneficial insects into your garden. The bamboo tubes provide the ideal nesting habitat for many of the over 200 species of solitary bee found in the UK. They lay their eggs in the tubes which are sealed in with a parcel of food made from either cut leaves or mud. The eggs change to larvae and then pupae which hatch out into new bees the following spring. The chamber with the slotted entrance provides shelter for moths and butterflies, many of which hibernate over winter. The pine cones provide the perfect shelter for ladybirds, the scourge of aphids. The mesh has been designed to permit access to native ladybirds only, and not the slightly larger, invasive Harlequin ladybirds which prey on our natural species. The section with blocks opens so that you can add leaf litter in the autumn, which acts as good overwinter habitat for another predator of aphids, the lacewing. Ideally, insect houses should be located in a South, South East or South-West facing location in a sheltered position close to, but not obscured by, vegetation. This insect house was designed in collaboration with the UK's leading insect charity - Buglife.

Then next Spring marvel as the next generation of adult bees emerges to continue the cycle of life.

Most species of bees are solitary in nature and do not form hives and colonies like honeybees. Likewise, many insects prefer to find solace in old cavities in plant stems or underground. These bees, insects and other wildlife are extremely important to the habitat and garden, providing important services like pollination. The bee and insect hotel range provides safety, shelter and habitat for a full range of bees, insects and other small wildlife including spiders.
The first and original ladybird tower was designed by us and much-copied ever since. Beware of facsimiles that don’t even have the hollow central core for the ladybirds to shelter in our ladybird towers ladybirds and other beneficial insects are made from naturally air-dried FSC-certified timber logs and the appearance may vary. Each tower is cleverly constructed to provide a hollow central chamber filled with straw to provide insulation and security for beneficial insects. Access to the central chamber is provided by paths drilled through the sides of the log. The central chamber is protected by the apex roof. The ladybird tower comes with a ground pole (fixed at the rear for transport). This allows the ladybird tower to be sited into lawns, sheltered flower beds, wooded glades, or even in planters. To encourage occupation of the tower by ladybirds you can smear ladybird food on the entrance holes. The slow-seasoned naturally durable timbers require no chemical preservatives that might deter the occupation of your ladybird tower.
It's just what I need I don't have a garden just a small balcony as I love wildlife I'm am doing my best to encourage them a safe haven this beautifully made ladybird house fits the purpose brilliant. Suzanne. London, GB. Thu Jul 08 2021
