Introducing the Sting Bug Hotel, crafted by Wildlife and Birdcare. Discover the benefits of having a bug hotel in your garden—protecting species, igniting children's curiosity, and giving nature a voice. This bug hotel offers a window into the fascinating world of garden bugs, allowing you to observe and learn about their habits and habitats. Catering to a diverse array of minibeasts such as ladybirds, bees, spiders, and woodlice, this insect sanctuary provides a safe haven for them to find shelter, lay eggs, raise their young, and escape predators. With its slender design and five compartments, the Sting Bug Hotel is a standout choice.

This exceptional Insect Hotel is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans based in Staffordshire, UK. Each Sting Bug Hotel is thoughtfully filled with naturally foraged twigs, logs, and pine cones collected from local forest floors. Bamboo sticks or river reeds are the only additions not sourced from these forest treasures. Designed specifically to attract solitary bees, beetles, ladybirds, and other garden insects, this insect hotel exudes a rustic charm, thanks to its robust construction using sustainably-sourced Larch wood from UK forests.
