If you have a small garden.

Compost garden material and kitchen scraps to reduce household waste going to landfill. Do-it-yourself compost is free, can be of excellent quality and provides a home for insects and fungi. Plant climbers such as honeysuckle or ivy, which provide food and cover for birds and insects. Water wisely - water is a very precious resource. Collect rainwater in a water butt. Plant native trees such as rowan or holly. Provide water for birds to drink and bathe in. Create a variety of habitats such as a mini pond, log or rock pile. These are great for insects and are quick and easy to make. Take care not to plant invasive species. Avoid using pesticides, herbicides and slug pellets.
