Hedgehog
Give hedgehogs a refuge, the essential ally of your natural vegetable garden!
The hedgehog is the gardener's best friend: a great fan of slugs, snails and caterpillars, it cleans up your vegetable patch and flowerbeds at night without you lifting a finger. Unfortunately, this little mammal often struggles to find safe places to hibernate or raise its young away from predators and lawnmowers. At Jardiboutique, we have selected hedgehog shelters and houses specially designed to offer them the comfort and safety they need. Installing a shelter in your garden is a simple way to help protect this cherished species while encouraging a healthy ecosystem.
Discover our hedgehog house models, made from natural wood or insulating materials, to protect them from winter cold and damp. Discreet and sturdy, these shelters fit perfectly under a hedge or a woodpile. Giving a hedgehog a home means securing valuable help for your plants' health and enjoying magical family observation moments as night falls. With Jardiboutique, become an active part of biodiversity in your own garden.
Jardiboutique's expert tip: Good positioning guarantees the shelter gets used. Installation tip: Place the house in a quiet, shaded, dry spot, ideally under a thick hedge or against an ivy-covered wall. Comfort: Line the inside of the shelter with dead leaves, straw or moss to help the hedgehog build its cosy nest. Safety: The entrance of our shelters is often designed with a baffle to stop dogs or cats disturbing the animal. Water: Always leave a small dish of fresh water nearby (but never milk, which is toxic to them).
