Hedgehog house with floor that gives garden hedgehogs a dry, safe shelter for overwintering. A cat-proof maze entrance protects them from predators, the sloping roof with weatherproof bitumen roofing felt lets rainwater run off, and the raised floor insulates the nest against damp and cold during hibernation.

Set the house up in early autumn in a dry, sheltered and shady spot, with the entrance facing away from the prevailing weather. Cover it with leaves and brushwood to protect it from other animals and leave leaves nearby as natural nesting material. Then do not disturb: a twig placed in front of the entrance shows when a hedgehog has moved in, because it will be gone. Hibernation lasts approx. 5 months, from November to March. Offer a safe winter home in your garden this season.
