hedgehogs

Christine on Plot 15/16 has a friend who takes in poorly hedgehogs ,she has three to release back into there natural habitat (after rehabilitation) and is going to put them on our site, along with a couple of hedgehog hotels ,near to where they will be released. We just want plot holders to be vigilant when strimming or burning items. There are other hazardous materials to hedgehogs such as slug pellets & netting that isn’t in use, Chemical’s are also a danger to them including pesticides. Turning over of compost heaps were a hedgehog could be resting in daylight hours. So can we all think about items we might have left out on our plots & put them away. Lets keep hedgehogs safe.
