In Kyiv’s parks, the installation of special insect houses is underway – for wild bees, ladybugs, goldfinches, and other pollinators.
Last year, 45 such houses appeared in the city’s parks and squares, and 12 more have been installed this year. The work on their arrangement continues.
The houses serve as a safe shelter for nesting and reproduction of insects, as well as protect them from unfavorable weather conditions.
It is in the spring and summer that insects show the greatest activity – they pollinate plants and participate in natural processes that support the health of urban ecosystems.
Such elements of ecological infrastructure are part of a broader effort to preserve biodiversity and maintain the natural balance in Kyiv’s green areas.
