A safe retreat for beneficial insects! By encouraging natural predators into your garden you can avoid the use of garden chemicals & be kind to the natural world. The ladybird lodge is made from environmentally sustainable FSC certified timber. The hinged roof opens so that you can introduce your own natural materials, rose cuttings, twigs, bark & straw to enhance the sheltered environment. The lower chamber features cosy bamboo tubes for overwintering ladybirds, lacewings & invertebrates. in addition, the wooden front ledge features drilled holes for nesting solitary bees who are another great friend of the gardener doing lots of pollination of plants & flowers. Your garden helpers can be viewed through the perspex side window. Site your Ladybird Lodge near a natural food source such as pesky aphids. 16 × 12 × 26 cm.
