This insect hotel is specifically designed to provide a resting and nesting place for ladybirds (after a hard day's work of eating aphids and their larvae). They will naturally venture into gardens where aphid numbers are high but also look to hibernate in a safe place over winter time. The pinecones provide a safe resting place within the deadwood to set up home.
As well as using this insect hotel, be sure to plant lots of flowers and herbs around the garden to help encourage them with a reliable food source.
Hang this hotel in a spot with a sunny aspects but nowhere that will get excessively hot. Keep off the ground and in a sheltered area where the dog won't play with it.
Made from natural untreated pine and pinecones.
Dimensions: approximately 15cm x 15cm.
