The Department of Agriculture estimates that 
insects do over a billion dollars’ damage a year 
to our crops, while the value of birds in combating 
these insects is over 300 million dollars. Besides 
their value in destroying insects, many species 
help in keeping down weeds. Offer the birds board 
and lodging by planting berry producing shrubs, 
and you will have a host of willing helpers, work- 
ing tirelessly for you throughout the whole year. 






Insect-eating birds flock to farms where a 
side dish of brilliant shrub and tree berries has 
been planted.
