Esschert Design Insect House Package

The package includes the three insect houses, but it does not come with specific mounting hardware like screws or nails. You will need to provide your own appropriate fasteners depending on whether you are attaching them to a wooden fence, a masonry wall, or a tree.

Yes, the houses are constructed from durable wood designed to withstand outdoor conditions. While they are weather-resistant, you may choose to bring them into a shed or garage during harsh winter months to extend their lifespan and keep the nesting materials dry.

No assembly is required. The houses arrive fully constructed and ready to be mounted directly onto your chosen surface.

For the best results, mount the houses in a sheltered, sunny spot that is protected from strong winds and heavy rain. Placing them near flowering plants or a water source will significantly increase the likelihood of attracting beneficial insects like solitary bees and butterflies.

These houses are designed to be low-maintenance. Because they lack specific drainage or ventilation features, it is a good idea to check them once a year—ideally in late winter—to clear out any debris or old nesting material to keep the environment healthy for new inhabitants.
