Take care of hedgehogs
At night, hedgehogs forage for food. They sometimes walk several kilometres between gardens. Gardens are frequently closed, forcing them to cross the street. This is extremely dangerous. Creating a hedgehog highway with hedgehog gates is thus an excellent solution. This is a gate in the fence that allows hedgehogs to look for food in gardens as well, reducing the need for them to cross the street. You can also assist hedgehogs by putting food in a special feeding dish. Tip: Hedgehogs in your garden can be beneficial because they eat snails. As a result, you can avoid a snail infestation.

With the combined feeding and drinking bowl especially for hedgehogs, they can be easily fed with food made especially for hedgehogs. The feeding / drinking bowl is designed in such a way that the drinking part is lower than the feed part. This prevents water from entering the feed when the hedgehog drinks. The feeding part of the bowl is provided with a drainage hole so that no water can remain in it.
A place to rest, nest and hibernate
Placing hedgehog houses in the garden not only provides them a nesting place, but it is also a good shelter in the hibernation period (between November and March). Not to mention, that if your garden is missing natural nesting sites (tree roots, log or leaf piles, rabbit holes), it is a bigger help to have hedgehog houses. We recommend to place out more houses separately, because hedgehogs live lonely and it is likely that there are more, than one in the neighborhood. Tip: For a safe home, cover the house with a thick layer of leaves, then put a plastic sheet with a heavy rock on the top and then another layer of leaves. The construction is very important to prevent dogs or badgers disturbing the hedgehog.
