Butterflies are an indication of a healthy landscape. Since their population can quickly decrease when something is wrong in the area, lots of butterflies are a good thing. Of course, they’re also one of the main pollinators who help our garden bloom. Since pesticides aren’t good for butterflies, those who want them in the garden shouldn’t use them. And fewer pesticides, the better, I say! Butterflies are also very much a part of the food chain. More butterflies can also mean other beneficial insects and wildlife will move in, such as birds. Lastly, they’re just a joy to have in the garden. They are one of the most wonderful partners to have around while gardening.
