these bug hotel logs are carved from solid Australian timber to replicate the texture and complexity of naturally decaying wood. Each piece is formed from a single log section, with the face drilled by hand to create a varied network of cavities that invite insects and small invertebrates to shelter, nest, and overwinter.
Hole sizes and depths are intentionally varied to support a broad range of beneficial species, including solitary bees, beetles, and other small critters. The arrangement avoids uniformity, favouring irregular spacing and depth to better reflect natural habitat rather than a decorative pattern.
If you have particular species or ecological outcomes in mind, the hole sizes and layout can be adjusted to suit local conditions and target insects.
The logs can be affixed to posts, pergolas, tree trunks, branches, or built structures, allowing flexibility across gardens, reserves, and public landscapes. Each unit is supplied with all required fixtures to suit the chosen mounting surface.
Specifications
• Sizes: multiple size options available
• Material: solid Australian timber
• Customisation: hole size and layout tailored to local insect species and habitat goals
• Installation: suitable for fixing to posts, pergolas, trees, or structures with provided fixtures
Supplied with all mounting hardware. Custom dimensions and finishes available on enquiry.
Each habitat is a unique handmade object. Natural variation in timber grain, drilling, and weathering means the final piece will differ from the images shown, which are indicative rather than exact.
