The essential ingredients for rustling up an insect hotel.
We have built a new insect stack, or insect hotel as they are often called, in our back garden here in Plealey. It is a real upmarket affair – if it were a hotel for humans it would definitely deserve to be called a “boutique hotel”. We hope it becomes a home for beneficial insects – ladybirds, lacewings, beetles and bees, plus maybe the occasional amphibian - one of our resident newts, toads or frogs perhaps. A much friendlier way of dealing with garden pests.
Finished and ready for occupancy.
