Make a Bug Hotel

Gardens need insects to keep healthy, and building a Bug Hotel is a great way to provide a secure fun place for bugs to live.

 

MATERIALS:

Bug Hotel

  • A collection of different shaped objects for example:
    • Cardboard rolls
    • Old bricks
    • Wood
    • Bark
    • Old pot plant containers
  • Wood or bricks to make the structure such as an old wooden crate.
  • Leaves and old plant material

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Make your outside structure first that will contain all the objects you've collected
  • Build it up the hotel with your different objects that could represent different rooms.
  • Add a bit of plant material for the bugs to munch. 

See how long it takes for the first guests to arrive!
