DIY Bug Hotel for Ladybirds/Ladybugs.

Our cherry tree struggles to bear fruit due to all the blackfly/aphid infestation, so we thought encouraging other bugs to move it would be a good idea. With this in mind I decide to build a bug hotel to encourage the bugs who each bugs. It turned out okay, ish :)
I filmed this a long time ago, but our family dog died shortly after and I couldn't bring myself to review the footage until now.

Hi Chris,
A video you recorded earlier. Different and good idea for harmful flies and insects. Insect hotel. Even the name sounded interesting to me. I'm sorry about your family's dead dog. Thank you for sharing. I wish you healthy, fly-free and insect-free days. See you. Big greetings. Your friend Mehmet

Thanks for checking it out Mehmet! Next year we'll see if it works I think, might be too late in the season.

Nice little build, made a similar one with my eldest. Sorry to hear about Ollie, 16 is a respectable age for a dog.
