What are the steps for creating natural backyard ponds?
A wildlife pond is built in a very similar way to another informal outdoor pond, you will select a spot in your backyard, dig the soil, install the liner and natural looking decoration. But there are some very important differences. First you will need less equipment as natural wildlife ponds don’t need filtration and aeration, the ecosystem will take care of keeping the water on its best natural condition. You also won’t introduce fish into this pond as they won’t allow your insect population to develop. You will need to have to make sure that your pond has a source of water to prevent it from drying. This can be a nearby stream or a controlled supply of piped water that you installed.
