ladybird/lacewing log

This natural habitat made from chunky FSC Certified Timber and natural log is an ideal habitat for Ladybirds and Lacewings.

Both of these insects are valuable natural predators of garden pests like aphids and greenfly.

Encouraging these insects will help reduce or eliminate chemical insecticide use in the garden. The internal chamber can be filled (through the viewing ports) with straw (Lacewings) or bark (Ladybirds and other insects) to provide valuable insulated over wintering space and summer retreat.

SITING - Position near an aphid problem area, preferably in a sheltered position on a wall, fence, tree or post.

H. 31cm W. 14cm D. 19cm
