A Butterfly House as Prime Insect Real Estate

For some, larger pets like cats or dogs can be a hassle, especially if you want to keep your garden, yard, or palm house pristine. Fortunately, insect lovers can set up an insect hotel, or the butterfly house, in the local park or their gardens. Then, if you have guests, you can attract insects to an event you might be hosting at home.

What’s a Butterfly House and Why Do I Need One?

A butterfly house is a small insect dwelling, usually shaped like a house, that can give little flying creatures a place to nest in gardens. Also, the butterfly house is generally made of the more natural materials like wood. 

Butterfly houses aren’t just for offering shelter or attracting butterflies to gardens or your local park. Insects of all sorts can stay in the butterfly house temporarily! In addition, these dwellings can make your yard more attractive during events.

Of course, a garden butterfly house is a place of momentary rest for many insects. Not only that, but they can meet and breed with other insects of their species through your insect hotels! Also, your insect guests can stick around for hibernation when the temperature goes down.

The Butterfly House: Common Features

So, a butterfly house is like a little hotel or AirBnB where you can host bees, ladybugs, and other helpful insects. Larger garden butterfly houses have several sections that can comfortably house various insects! So, naturally, one specific part of the house is meant for butterflies.

Most butterfly houses come in natural colors or are made of untreated wood. However, some houses have wood shavings, twigs, and pine cones. As a result, the natural, outdoorsy feel of the insect hotels makes them look inviting to insects. 

Final Thoughts

The butterfly house is perfect for staying hands-off while giving insects a place to come home to. Also, insects can add to the event if you have tropical plants in your yard! Thus, people interested in butterflies and beneficial insects should add a stunning butterfly house to their garden. The butterflies and other insects are sure to thank you for a lovely time in your garden.
