Why install a butterfly shelter? In some species, it is the adult butterflies that overwinter. In the fall, these species look for protected places to shelter until spring.
Description
- In nature, the places chosen by these butterflies are scree, stumps and piles of wood or branches. These species have also learned to use buildings, which offer them excellent protection against rain and a slightly warmer temperature than outside. Butterflies are often observed in the fall (October) seeking shelter near the roofs of buildings.
- Installing a butterfly shelter is not essential for the survival of these species, but it makes it easier to observe the pollinator that is the butterfly and to encourage its establishment in the garden.
- Plant a beautiful variety of flowers that attract butterflies. Browse and discover our flower seeds.
- Protect the shelter from rain by ideally installing it under the cornice of buildings or in nature; make sure it is as protected as possible, for example, against the trunk of a large tree.
- Avoid the use of pesticides and insecticides.
- Height 8 in (20 cm); width 6 ½ in (16,5 cm); depth 6 ½ in (16,5
- cm); weight 2,37 lb (1,076 kg).
- Cedar shelter made in Estrie by a craftswoman who has great concern for the environment.
