zackster The bees and butterflies disappearing isn’t exactly a mystery. Neonicotinoids are directly responsible.
Mad_Cyril Excellent. Already designing my pretend Bees NFT’s. You want in early? (Probably more a statement than a question)

Amps RichM You don’t have to grow all of it. You can have a classically cut piece of lawn where you can train the dog to shit. The contrast of long grass, short grass, and dog shit, can look quite nice too:
Homegrove Amps we have something like that. Our back garden is 30 or so meters long. The 15 metres next to the house is kept trimmed, the last 15 metres I let go wild, and then cut it down in late September. We have a few paths there to get around.
RichM Amps if I agree to do that, will we get some more gifs of some huge norks as a reward? If so I think you are onto something

Amps Homegrove Do you get a fair bit of wildlife in there or have you never actually bothered to look out of the window?
Homegrove Amps we have loads of birds (we also have 5 birdhouses in various trees), a couple of squirrels seem to live on our property, and the occasional hare visit. Been meaning to get a few insect hotels, but the missus thinks I should be able to do one myself. I’m just lazy.
Amps Homegrove Sweet. I read that not all bug hotels are made the same. Defo worth a bit of research. You may find that a very simple log pile might be more effective. That’s not to be confused with something Rhousedawg would coil down in the long grass.
Homegrove Mad_Cyril we have two. Not letting them outside, because they would kill everything like you said.
