One of the best ways to attract butterflies is to plant flowers in your yard. It's like an invitation to them. There is a big bush called a Butterfly bush that they go crazy over.

If I wanted to attract butterflies, I would go about planting some colorful flowers in your backyard. Create a small butterfly garden, and they will begin to come around. The bigger the garden is, I would assume the more butterflies will come and fly around your backyard. Hope this helps.
