Brambles Crunchy Hedgehog Food-5kg

With Hedgehog numbers now in worrying decline across much of the UK, putting out food in your garden for this once common and appealing mammal is a great way to help them. Brambles Crunchy Hedgehog Food is ideal, as not only does it have the correct mix of vitamins, minerals and nutrients, but, as dry food, it’s also easy and convenient to put out each evening. The texture of the biscuit-like food is also useful in helping the dental health of hedgehogs. However as there is no moisture in the food, it’s vital that fresh water is provided right next to where you put the food in your garden. Feeding this type of complementary food is just one way you can help a local population of hedgehogs, with others including access to and from your garden, plus improving habitat for both natural feeding and shelter for hibernation and breeding. On the access point, putting holes in your garden fences – obviously with the agreement of your neighbours – of 13cm x 13cm, will allow hedgehogs access and a through-route to more land. Encouraging other residents in your area to do the same will really make a difference, with hedgehogs being able to roam a much bigger area – and they can travel up to 2km per night.
