Place this handmade insect hotel in your garden to attract a variety of insects, such as ladybugs, lacewings, bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. The natural looking house will adorn any flower garden very well. It has slightly larger size than usual, with 14-3/4″ tall by 8″ wide by 3-4/5″ deep.
Installation tips:
The insect house should be set up in a sheltered spot away from the prevailing wind.
Solitary bees prefer a spot in direct sunlight, most other insects like it best when it’s slightly damp.
If you have a large flower bed, pond or hedge where there is already abundant wildlife, you will find your hotel to be filled up quickly if sited near these areas.

Nicely made… Got two of these to give as Christmas gifts. They seem well made and both recipients were very happy with them. Only thing I would suggest is some kind of instruction on how to hang them, proper height and orientation for optimal use by bugs.
Very nice…just small I thought this was a pretty cool idea. It is really well made, with good materials. It is smaller than expected, however. No bugs have taken up residence just yet. But I’m happy with the purchase.
I just hung it on a screw and it sits nicely on one of my deck legs above my flower … Very simple and cute. I just hung it on a screw and it sits nicely on one of my deck legs above my flower garden.
