Create a thriving pollinator haven in your own garden.
No biodiversity-friendly garden is complete without an insect nesting box — and this DIY Insect Hotel Kit makes it easy to build your own. Insects such as bees, ladybirds, and lacewings are vital for a healthy garden, pollinating plants and acting as natural pest control. By giving them a safe place to nest and overwinter, you’re helping your garden — and Ireland’s biodiversity — to thrive.
This complete set includes everything you need to construct your own insect hotel: hammer, nails, and wood glue, all neatly packaged in a full-colour gift box. Made from natural pinewood, bamboo, pinecones, and metal, the finished insect hotel offers multiple nesting chambers for different species, allowing pollinators to shelter side by side.
Hang it beside your mini wildflower meadow to create a complete pollinator habitat. Each kit also comes with an Irish pollinators identification chart and educational facts about wildflowers, pollination, and the importance of ecological gardening.
