I have a small pond - everyones ok with that....
I have sparrow and blue tit nesting boxes up, and feeding stations - everyones ok with that....
I have a hedgehog nesting box hidden in the bushes - everyones ok with that....
But this weekend I bought a bug lodge. For those of you who havn't the foggiest its a small wooden box. It has lots of small hollow reeds in the top half for bugs to hide in, and a box compartment with holes for the bugs to crawl through. Inside that are pieces of bark stacked up for the bugs to overwinter in
- everyones NOT ok with that.... everyone says ARE YOU MAD?....and YUCK!!! or they just laugh and call me bonkers.
may I just say that without bugs not only would we starve cos there would be no pollination but also countless food chains would break down. Now who is a looney buying a bug box??
