1. Hedgehog populations in the UK have declined by more than half since 2000, so it’s important we encourage their presence in a safe and warm spot in our gardens. Autumn is their hibernation period, that time when they search for that place to go into a long, relaxing sleep for the winter. It’s also a dangerous period for them, too, with many making the critical mistake of resting in unlit bonfires or piles of leaves that will soon be swept away.
One way to prevent this is by making a hedgehog house – you can find a step-by-step guide on how to do this on the Cheshire Wildlife Trust website – or you can purchase a pre-built house from your local garden centre. Choose a shady spot in your garden for the hedgehogs to find.
