For something a bit more elaborate, you can try this bumblebee house. It is going to attract a variety of insects, and not just bumblebees. You can open the house up when you like, and it provides them a small and comfortable space for the insects to get inside. This makes them feel protected and at ease, so they will feel good about coming to your garden. The galvanized roof is a neat idea here, as it keeps the house dry and ensures proper water runoff.
