Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of ecological engineering, and particularly relates to an insect house. BACKGROUND

[0002] Insects are the most prolific animals on earth, with over a million species discovered, more than all other animal groups combined. Insects are constructed differently from vertebrates, their bodies are not supported by an internal skeleton, but are encased in a shell made of chitin. This shell is segmented to facilitate movement, like a knight's armor.

[0003] Insects play an important role in the biosphere. Insect-pollinated flowers need the help of insects to spread pollen. And the honey collected by bees is one of the foods that people like. In some places in Africa, Southeast Asia and South America, insects themselves are the food of the local people. But excessive insects can also pose a threat to the environment, such as aphids, scale insects, etc. When aphids cause harm, they will excrete a large amount of honeydew to pollute the leaves and fruits, causing the occurrence of soot disease, affecting plant photosynthesis, and aphids can also transmit viral diseases, causing large-scale occurrence of viral diseases. Scale insects are one of the main pest species of garden plants. There are more than 600 species of scale insects that harm garden plants in China, mainly causing yellowing, deformation, and leaf abscission of branches and leaves, and even death of the whole plant, which seriously affects the normal growth of trees and the effect of landscaping.

[0004] The concept of "insect hotel" originated in Europe, aiming to awaken people's obligation to protect insects, to repay nature, to protect the ecology, and to promote the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. Insect hotel is made of natural materials and according to the habits of insects to provide different types of small spaces for various insects to breed, inhabit and overwinter. Different insects have different preferences for the design of 'rooms'. Sawdust and deadwood can provide habitat for beetles and centipedes, inverted tiles can attract harvester ants and ants, inverted and filled with hay flowerpots and pine cones can attract ladybugs, which become their habitat and then eliminate nearby aphids, and tree bark is the favorite of beetles, spiders and millipedes.

[0005] CN 218354160U discloses an insect hotel, which collects rainwater through a rain shield and a water storage tank to reduce the probability of the insect hotel body toppling over. This device only has a honeycomb structure, and the types of insects attracted are limited.

[0006] CN 218184786U discloses an insect hotel, which is composed of solid wood and reed, attracting wasps, mud bees, butterflies and predatory beetles. The reed rods in this device are prone to rot and mold, affecting the survival environment of insects, and the distribution of insect holes is too close, which is not conducive to the reproduction of bees.

[0007] CN 212971301U discloses an insect hotel, and specifically discloses a roof and multi-layered rooms, which can provide habitats for insects such as ladybugs, trichogramma, bees, predatory mites and the like.

[0008] CN 216135041U discloses a beneficial animal attracting protection device, and specifically discloses that according to the habitat and overwintering biological characteristics of target natural enemies such as ladybugs, green lacewings, ground beetles, spiders and wall bees and pollinating insects, a box layer and a bundle layer are used to attract insects, and the inside of the coarse pipe bundle is filled with agricultural and forestry waste which is prone to spoilage and deterioration, which is not conducive to the life of insects.
