How to Make a Bug House

Today I'm going to tell you how to make A bug house.  If you find a bug in the yard that you want to keep or observe you will need a house for it.  This is a very simple bug house that you can make out of everyday household objects. So let's get started.

First you will want to find a small container with a lid.  The next step is to cut a hole in the top of the lid. Now you want to find some fabric that the bug cannot get through but it still haves holes so the bug can breathe. These holes can be microscopic as long as long as air to go through them.
Now you will want to tape the fabric over the hole. I used  duct tape,  because it is quite sticky and strong.




Now you will want to use hot glue on the inside where there is a small space between the fabric and the edge of the hole you cut. You will want to do this so the bug does not get out but also so if the bug crawls up there he does not cut himself. Put the glue all the way around making sure to cover any openings and any sharp spots.

Now you have made a bug house for yourself. You can go out and explore in your yard and try to find a bug to observe.
