Don’t use slug pellets: hogs feed off beetles, worms and deal with slugs for you.
If you see a hedgehog out in the day, or a small hog in autumn, put them in a box in
the warm, cover with a towel and contact
the British Hedgehog Preservation Society britishhedgehogs.org.uk/found-a-hedgehog/ or 01584 890 801. They will be able to direct you to the nearest carer.
If a hog is injured, take them to any local vet.
Most of all if you see one in your back garden, enjoy watching these delightful creatures as they snuffle around through your borders. They are endangered and we can all pay our part in ensuring their survival.
