The enormous diversity of insect-built buildings demonstrates how various insects have evolved to tackle the ecological issues in their particular habitats. Insects construct a wide range of buildings from different materials. These buildings have a variety of functions, from aiding in prey acquisition to housing the entire colony. For example, social ants build colonies with layers growing outward. There are numerous chambers within this structure that are linked to one another. The layers are made of small wood fibres and some binding material. This structure is a shelter for the whole colony. Canopies protect the openings from rain and the sun. Some insects work alone, but others work in groups to construct enormously intricate structures. The fundamental architectural and design concepts have been refined over millions of years to endure a wide range of environmental disturbances; they provide valuable lessons for structures constructed by humans.
