Last year the biggest head count was 13 on one night, but we were feeding
Mealworms…..a big mistake.
This year, 40 % calciworms mixed with a blend of mealworms (3%) cat food(10%) And the remainder being a mix of various recommended specialised hedgehog food.
Started off slowly but now the average is 15 per night, that’s what we count under the security lights prior to bed.
Given the amount of hedgie droppings on our lawns this is just a fragment of the actual visitations.
Tonight it’s bad news for slugs, haven’t seen many up to now but with the rain and humidity they are out in vast numbers tonight…feeding on hedgie food..the hedgies coming for their usual supper are getting a ‘double delight’
Though the chewing and slurping sounds might put the faint hearted off😁
