Make a hotel for bugs

Collect lots of hollow stems, leaves and pine cones and put them inside an empty plastic bottle (and leave the cap off).

Leave it under a bush or hanging from a tree and you'll soon find that insects will love staying there :O)

These brilliant bug hotels were made by Kents Hill School Gardening Club.

 

Have you made a bug hotel?
