They are sort of wandering nomads. I have had them in my garden for years. They have even had their young here, but they still all wander off even when they are well fed with left-over cat food. The little house is a good idea but only for hibernation over the winter. As a gardener I have to admit to cutting slugs in half with a spade. Sorry, but it seems the quickest way. If I can find them I will dig out those photos of the baby hedgehogs from last year. Cheers....Bernard Actually, hedgehogs will not stay in the same area. They are sort of wandering nomads.

I try to employ non deadly tactics to keep the slugs off my plants!!! I don’t think slugs are the No. 1 fave food of hedgehogs, but they do eat them.

Do hedgehogs eat slugs then? I always feel sorry for slugs[no one likes them!] In fact, I had a big tiff with my Mum when she bought slug killer pellets[she is so kind to animals normally that I was shocked and disgusted] and threw the box away when she was not looking! :) That’s so cute.
