On this page, two Spanish students are going to invite you to build a mini insect hotel.

Follow their instructions and you will be able to create a hotel for your home or school.

The materials you need are: 

In short: a small wooden box, a few natural elements, a piece of wire mesh, two pieces to avoid water and a stake (if you want to drive the insect hotel into the ground).

And the tools you will need are:
a hot-melt adhesive gun, a saw, a pair of metal scissors, and a pair of scissors for metal.

This is the process to follow:

And this is how we got our two mini insect hotels:

We have placed one in a sunny area and the other in a shadier area... will there be a difference in the insect population? Well... we'll keep an eye on it!

Óscar and Roxana are two very special children for us!
