The SCHWEGLER Insect Combination Box is designed to encourage useful
insects to live in your garden. Internal slats filled with different natural
materials offer suitable accommodation for many useful species which
fulfil an important regulatory or pollination function in our natural world.
The Insect Combi eliminates the need for poisonous chemicals in
a garden measuring up to 400 … 500 m2.
Pest damage in a garden or in the countryside can be seen when certain
plants become weak and diseased, die off or fail to develop properly. To a
certain extent plants can protect themselves against weather conditions
but when subjected to attack by pests their only defence is to rely on the
natural enemies of these pests. The Insect Combi helps to ensure the
survival of these beneficial creatures.
The different layouts and materials used in the Combi attract a wide
number of species of useful creatures and they can hide or overwinter in
it. Occupants live relatively independently of one another and can survive
even in unfavourable conditions. Most Insects fly into the box and those
that cannot fly will climb into it from the specially designed wooden legs.
