The beautiful Wildlife World Butterfly Barn is a place to provide shelter for garden butterflies, moths, lacewings and other species of pollinating insects.
Perfect for creating a dedicated rest and feeding area for these beautiful and beneficial insects for British gardens.
Made from strong sustainable natural wood and recycled plastic, this Butterfly Barn includes a slatted centre to provide a resting place and shelter, as well as a feeding zone.
The recycled green plastic door features a cut out butterfly for added interest. This also swivels allowing access to the slatted compartment for cleaning.
To feed butterflies, fill up the small transparent reservoir at the bottom of the Butterfly Barn. It can be filled butterfly food or serve sweet over-ripe fruit instead of sugar water.
Easy to install with a handy metal hanger, there is also a copper effect cap to protect the timber roof joint.

Care Instructions
To attract visitors, fill up the reservoir at the bottom with a solution of diluted butterfly food or fill with sweet over-ripe fruit instead of sugar water.
Hang on a south or south-east facing wall to receive the morning sun for best success.
It is best to clean the Butterfly Barn after the cooler months as any species which could have overwintered inside will have woken up by warmer temperatures.
