Recently, members of 6W emptied our bug hotels. These hotels were made in the autumn to provide shelter for all sorts of bugs over the winter. They were made out of chicken wire wrapped into a cylinder. Then they were filled with leaves after putting sticks through the bottom (to stop the leaves falling out). We put them in St Marks gardening area. A few days ago (In Spring) we emptied the bug hotels. We discovered lots of bugs. The best bug we found was a Centripede. There were lots of woodlice. I have asked some onlookers about the bugs. “It was enjoyable,” said Sam. “It was intresting to see the different types of bugs.” said Alex To some up, it was great fun.
Details of how to make your own bug hotels and lots of information about bugs can be found on the Bug Life website: www.buglife.org.uk
