Introduction
Have you ever wondered what biodiversity actually is? A lot of people don't know what it means. We'll explain it briefly. Just like humans, every animal needs food. This also applies to insects.Most insects get their food from plants. However, they do not all use the same plants for this. It is
very important that there are many different kinds of plants, so that many different kinds of in- sects can use them. Biodiversity therefore means many different kinds of plants in one place.10 Questions to Assess Your Garden
