How A Pile Of Logs Can Attract Fireflies To Your Yard
By TIFFANY SELVEY
Firefly populations are dwindling due to pesticide use and light pollution. You can help them by leaving a pile of wood in your yard, providing them with shelter and protection.
Not only does the wood pile provide shelter, but it attracts food for fireflies. Incorporating leaf piles next to the wood creates a good environment for breeding and foraging.
Creating these sanctuaries also aligns with sustainable yard management practices because, instead of discarding organic matter, you are contributing to biodiversity conservation.
