[0023] Example

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an entrance and exit structure of an insect house 9 includes a passage 5 opened in the insect house 9, the passage 5 is arranged on the side or top of the insect house 9, the passage 5 is a square structure, and the side length of the passage 5 is 1-6 cm, so that insects can enter and exit freely, while improving the safety of insects; the passage 5 connects the inside and outside of the insect house 9, and the outside of the passage 5 is provided with a passage ramp 1 for connecting with the ground, the angle between the passage ramp 1 and the ground is in the range of 10°-40°, so as to prevent insects from sliding when crawling, and the width of the passage ramp 1 is in the range of 1-5 cm, so that insects of various sizes can pass smoothly, and it is ensured that insectivores cannot pass. For insects of different sizes, ramps of different widths and inclinations are set: for smaller insects, such as ants, the width of the passage ramp 1 is about 1-2 cm, and the inclination is 10°-20°. For medium-sized insects, such as locusts and dragonflies, the width of the ramp 1 is about 2-4 cm, and the inclination is 20°-30°. For large insects, such as butterflies and bees, the width of the ramp 1 is about 3-5 cm, and the inclination is 30°-40°.

[0025] Side panels 3 are provided on both sides of the width direction of the passage ramp 1, and any of the side panels 3 is connected to the opposite side of the insect house 9. The side panels 3 not only prevent insects from falling from the side of the passage ramp 1, but also guide insects to move along the passage ramp 1, so that insects can smoothly enter the insect house 9. The top sides of the two side panels 3 are commonly connected with a sunscreen 4, and the sunscreen 4 is connected to the opposite side of the insect house 9, ensuring that the annular channel cover formed by the sunscreen 4, the passage ramp 1 and the sunscreen 4 is provided on the passage 5. In the present application, when insects move along the passage ramp 1, the sunscreen 4 and the two side panels 3 form a shielding structure of the passage ramp 1, which has a sunshade and rainproof protection effect on the insects on the passage ramp 1, which is conducive to the insects entering the interior of the insect house 9 in bad weather.

[0026] Furthermore, in order to prevent insects from slipping on the access ramp 1, the access ramp 1 can be made of materials with anti-skid properties, such as dry wood, wet wood, natural rubber, bamboo, rock, etc. These materials can provide sufficient friction to prevent insects from slipping. In addition, the access ramp 1 can be processed, such as grooving or roughening, to increase the friction of the access ramp 1. For example, for places with many ants, the access ramp 1 is made of coarse sand and gravel soil with greater friction combined with bundles of branches; for places with many spiders, the access ramp 1 is made of wet bark, wood and leaves.

[0027] In some embodiments of the present invention, a color coating 11 for guiding insects is provided on the edge of the passage 5 , and the color coating 11 is located between the sun visor 4 and the passage ramp 1 .

[0028] In the above embodiment, the color coating 11 has an attractive effect on insects, which facilitates guiding the insects to enter the interior of the insect house 9 through the passage 5. The color coating 11 can be red, yellow or orange.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, the passage ramp 1 is provided with guides 2 at intervals along the length direction, and the guides 2 are used to guide insects into the insect house 9.

[0030] In the above embodiment, when the insects move on the passage ramp 1, the guides 2 arranged in sequence have a guiding effect, so that the insects can smoothly enter the interior of the insect house 9. The above guides 2 can be made of food residues or sweet food.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom of the insect house 9 is hollowed out, and the hollowed out bottom of the insect house 9 is filled with a hay stack 10 .

[0032] In the above embodiment, some holes are left in the hay stack 10, which can not only attract insects, but also provide habitats for small animals such as toads, snakes, lizards, etc.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present invention, a habitat space is provided inside the insect house 9 , and the habitat space is filled with plank-shaped dead wood strips 6 , hollow straws 7 and hay 8 .

[0034] In the above embodiment, the habitat space is located above the hollowed-out bottom of the insect house 9, the dead wood strips are suitable for ladybugs to inhabit, the hay 8 is suitable for earwigs to inhabit, and the hollow straw 7 is suitable for aphid flies to inhabit.

[0035] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
