    Sunnysarah, have you got a pond? My slug issues are much better now ive got an army of frogs, the hedgehog seems to prefer dog food! image

    That's why I use the bought hedgehog biscuits and the mix of chopped nuts, seeds and fruit with a few dried mealworms, as I described above.  

    Cats aren't interested in it and the birds come and clear up any spillages - hedgehogs are messy feeders.


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Ive got lots of frogs but obviously more slugs than they can handle.

    My hedgehog does a great job of sweeping up all the sunflower seeds that the birds drop. Best place to see him / her as it gets dusk under feeders. Then it's down the path for a drink of fresh water and then a tramp on my aubrietta imageimage
