Moss, the ancient and resilient green carpet of nature, plays a vital role in ecosystems by retaining moisture, preventing erosion, and providing habitats. It’s a low-maintenance addition to gardens and is gaining popularity in modern design for its aesthetic and environmental benefits. Easy to care for in terrariums, moss offers a unique way to bring a touch of nature into our daily lives.

Mosquitoes, often seen merely as pests, play crucial roles in ecosystems. They are vital food sources for many species, aid in pollination, contribute to scientific research, and serve as ecological indicators. While controlling their populations in urban areas is important for public health, their role in nature is significant and complex.
