With a little bit of knowledge and patience, it’s easy to bring butterflies to you. Incorporating butterfly host and nectar plants, reducing and/or eliminating the use of pesticides, and providing water and shelter are the basic steps in making your garden an attractive home for many species of butterflies.

What constitutes shelter for the butterfly? Throughout spring, summer, and early fall, butterflies seek out undisturbed areas with tall plants and grasses to sleep. It is only during the late fall and winter months that these winged beauties seek more shelter. When the weather cools, butterflies begin an annual migration, overwinter in a cocoon or chrysalis, or hibernate as adults. A butterfly house helps support the species of butterflies that spend the winter as adults.
Much like birdhouses, butterfly houses come in many shapes and sizes, from a simple wooden box with a slanted roof to elaborate architectural miniatures of beach cottages, log cabins, churches, and garden sheds. Unlike a birdhouse, a butterfly house has long, narrow slots rather than a round hole. These slots allow access to butterflies but keep the birds out.
When shopping for a butterfly house, look for one that opens in the back for easy cleanout. You will also want to place a piece of bark or a small branch inside for butterflies to perch on. If you are a do-it-yourself person, a variety of butterfly house plans can be found on the Internet. Make sure you use untreated lumber; pine and cypress are preferred.
