Living with Birds Riverside Hedgehog House

To make a safe space for hedgehogs in your garden, start by putting a Riverside Hedgehog House made from FSC certified wood. This house gives hedgehogs a strong and natural place to nest, which won't rot easily. Make sure the house has a tunnel entrance to keep hedgehogs safe from predators. Fill the house with natural nesting materials like leaves and straw to make it cozy and welcoming.

Giving hedgehogs a wooden house, like the Riverside Hedgehog House, creates a safe place for them to nest and find shelter. This helps protect hedgehogs by giving them a natural place to stay safe from predators and bad weather.

Riverside Woodcraft houses are well-designed to give hedgehogs a safe and natural home. Approved by the Hedgehog Preservation Society, these houses, like the Hogilo Hedgehog House, have strong construction and secure entrances. These features make them perfect for keeping hedgehogs safe from predators and bad weather.

While you can use dog food as an alternative, it’s better to provide specialized hedgehog food to ensure they get the right nutrients. Hedgehog food is made to meet their dietary needs, promoting better health and well-being. The Hedgehog Preservation Society advises choosing hedgehog food over dog or cat food for the best nutrition. Always provide fresh water along with their food.

Place your hedgehog homes in a quiet spot in your garden like a compost heap or wild grass. Somewhere the hedgehog won't be disturbed. To make it more appealing for a hedgehog, fill it with dry leaves. Don't face north. This will cause gusts of cold wind in the winter months. Leave food nearby to see if a hedgehog is present. To encourage hedgehogs consider placing some hedgehog food nearby.
