Insect hotel

An insect hotel is like a little house for bugs! Bugs are important for our garden because they help pollinate our flowers and plants. Insect hotels provide a safe and cozy space for bugs to live and lay their eggs.

Think of it like when you go camping and you set up a tent. Insect hotels are like tents for bugs, but instead of having a sleeping bag and pillow, they have little crevices and holes for the bugs to crawl into.

Different bugs like different things, so insect hotels are made with lots of different materials like wood, bamboo, dead leaves, and twigs. These materials create different textures and sizes of holes for the bugs to crawl into.

Insect hotels can be made at home or bought at a store, and they can be placed in the garden or on a balcony. It's important to keep them clean and dry so the bugs stay healthy and happy!
