Insect Home Small

An insect hotel is a human made creation designed to provide shelter for insects, and encourage the eco-system of your garden to thrive. When designing a garden a healthy mix of critters helps your garden grow and thrive. While bugs, insects and bees might not be your thing: almost two-thirds of flowering plants need insects for pollination.

You can help attract the insects by planting a wide variety of pollen-rich plants, each that flower at different times of the year to provide a regular food source. Native bees like gum trees, bottle brushes, wattles and daisies, among others are a perfect choice.
