Stinging nettles are fantastic plants for wildlife, with the Biological Records Centre listing over 100 species of invertebrates that use the common stinging nettle as a food plant. These include small tortoiseshell, red admiral, comma, painted lady and peacock butterflies, and garden tiger, flame and buff ermine moths. Both species of stinging nettles also support numerous garden birds, with reed buntings, bullfinches, serins and siskins known to eat their seed.
