We haven’t seen a hedgehog for a few days now but we have seen lots of mice on our nighttime camera and they are eating the hedgehog food in spite of pest control spray, chilli flakkes etc . Is there anything we can do?
Hi georgesgranny
It’s possible that the hedgehogs have disappeared for hibernation at this time of year so hopefully they’ll be back in the Spring, if not before.
There isn’t really anything you can do about the mice, especially bearing in mind what tiny gaps they can fit through. Helping wildlife often means that we also inadvertently help another species! The only consolation is that mice don’t eat too much – although they might take some away to cache. Maybe the best thing to do is enjoy watching their antics whilst the hogs aren’t around.
