The Insect Epiphany is a buzz-worthy book by a leading entomologist on how insects are needed as pollinators, preators and prey and how they play an often overlooked role in our culture. Their anatomy and habitats inform how we live, build, create and take flight. Also learn more on ants (and how to humanely deter them).
If growing plants and flowers to attract beneficial insects, learn how to make your garden safe for pets.
Insects surround us, and fuel life as pollinators, predators and prey, and this book looks at how they benefit the world, with 250 colour images from ancient etchings to modern art, to inspire.
All around us, these marvellous little beings exhibit every form, colour and behaviour imaginable. Our very existence depends on the insects around us. They provide ecological services by pollinating, decomposing and feeding others, without which ecosystems would crumble.
