FAQ
Is this a complete food for hedgehogs?
No. It is a complementary food, so it is designed to be fed alongside the natural diet a wild hedgehog forages for itself rather than as a complete replacement.
Can badgers and foxes eat it too?
Yes. The food is also suitable for badgers and foxes, which makes it useful where several species visit the same garden or yard.
How much should I put out each night?
Offer a small amount at dusk and adjust based on how much is eaten. Little and often reduces waste and keeps the feeding area clean.
Should I give hedgehogs milk as well?
No. Hedgehogs cannot digest milk. Always provide a shallow bowl of fresh water next to the food instead.
Where is the best place to feed?
A quiet, sheltered spot under a hedge, shrub or in a covered feeding station works well, as it keeps the food dry and away from dogs and cats.
How should the food be stored?
Keep the pack closed in a cool, dry place out of reach of pets and other animals to help maintain freshness.
