For the hedgehog fan in your life! A metal hedgehog corridor and sign to help hedgehogs roam free between gardens. Ideal for Christmas gifting!
Help hedgehogs safely navigate between gardens by attaching this metal sign to a fence and cut around the corridor to create a hedgehog highway in a fence.
The UK has lost more than a third of its native hedgehog population in the last 50 years due to habitat loss and fragmentation. Hedgehogs need our help! A single garden is definitely too small for a hedgehog’s survival, and so creating wildlife corridors between gardens is a super way to help. Adult hogs can roam as far as 3km a night, especially in search of a mate.
The steel frame creates a 13x13cm corridor once cut through. Full instructions are included with the highway. Please note that the steel will naturally age and rust with exposure to the elements over time.
Add to your gift with an optional tin of hedgehog friendly wildflowers, a mix of plants that attract the insects that hedgehogs like to feed on. Simply scatter the seed balls in a garden bed (no need to dig or have gardening expertise) and water well. Scatter anytime from early Autumn through to the end of Spring, wildflower seeds love a chilly spell!
To further treat your nature-loving friends add a tin of Hedgehog Mix wildflower seed balls. Each ball is made from a mix of clay, peat-free compost, chilli powder and approximately 30 seeds from a mixture of Yellow Rattle, Wild Carrot, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Tufted Vetch, Self Heal and Poppy. See image roll for images of how the plants look in flower.
Option to a second hedgehog highway to your order if you would like to attach a sign on both sides of a fence or opening.
