This guide is for anyone looking to provide a safe haven for hedgehogs in their garden. The Urbn-Living Wooden Hedgehog House offers a secure and comfortable nesting space, aiding in hedgehog hibernation and shelter. Note that while designed to deter larger predators, you should still consider your local wildlife when placing the house.

A sheltered, quiet location, preferably under a bush or against a fence, away from direct sunlight and prevailing winds.
Dry leaves, straw, or other natural bedding materials to help the hedgehogs feel comfortable and safe.
Remove old nesting material, and use a mild soap and water solution to clean the inside. Allow it to dry completely before replacing the bedding.
The entrance is designed to deter foxes and badgers, but you should still be aware of local predator activity.
Regularly check the house for damage and clean it out before the hibernation season to ensure it's in good condition.
Observe from a distance and avoid disturbing the hedgehog, especially during hibernation.
It is made of wood, designed to be durable and blend naturally into the garden environment.
Ensure the house is in a suitable location (sheltered, quiet), add more nesting material, and consider the presence of potential predators in the area. Make sure it is away from direct sun and heavy rain.
Inspect the house regularly and repair any damage. Consider applying a pet-safe wood sealant to improve weather resistance.
