Insect hotel - Wild bees, bumblebees & Co. in the garden
Knowing and welcoming wild bees and bumblebees to the garden
Who knows that there are almost 800 species of wild bees and bumblebees in the world? Tireless foragers, they are just as essential to pollination as their well-known cousin, the honeybee. And who knows that most wasp species are completely harmless to humans, more attracted to spiders than jam?
It's easy to welcome these peaceful insects into your garden or even onto your balcony. In this book, you'll discover how to build them suitable nests and plant their favorite flowers. You'll also learn how to identify the main species and their often astonishing lifestyles.
