1 BAT BOXES Bat boxes are available for siting on trees and external walls as well as those which are purposely designed for building into the masonry or roof of new buildings and renovations. Summer boxes are suitable for the warmer months but are less likely to be used over the winter. Hibernation boxes are designed to be larger and have better insulation so will provide a safe and warm space for bats to hibernate throughout the winter. Maternity boxes are suitable for the formation of colonies and raising of young. es classified as Access provide an entrance to an existing roosting space such as a wall cavity or loft. Crevice dwelling species include common, soprano and Nathusius pipistrelle, Brandt s and whiskered bats. Cavity dwelling species include brown long eared, Daubenton s and Natterer s bats. Brown long eared bats in particular (as well as grey long eared and Natterer s bats) require flight space within the roost. es that are suitable for these species have been classified as Large Cavity. Bat boxes should be sited at least two metres above ground and away from artificial light sources. It is often beneficial to have multiple boxes which face in different directions: this will provide the bats with a range of temperature conditions to choose from.

9 FEEDERS Feeding the birds in your garden, particularly in the winter, can make a huge difference to their survival. During cold winter months birds require high fat foods such as peanuts and fatballs, provided regularly. These foods will enable them to maintain their body fat reserves and keep warm. In the summer months food shortages may still occur so feeding less regularly is still recommended. At this time of year, high protein foods such as seeds or mealworm will be beneficial, especially while birds are moulting.

10 MAMMAL BOXES Hedgehog es are designed to be placed in an overgrown and quiet space, preferably against a bank, wall or fence. Make sure that the entrance to the house is not facing into the prevailing wind and rain. A small hole in or under garden fences will also help hedgehogs gain access to the garden and will make it more likely that they will find the box. Dormouse and red squirrel boxes are only recommended for use in sites where presence has been confirmed (e.g. with dormouse nest tubes). Dormouse boxes should be wired to a tree at a height of around 1.5m with the entrance facing the trunk. Squirrel houses should be located at a height of around 3-4 metres.

Shady locations with good cover are essential and a nearby rockery or long grass will also help to provide them with damp places to shelter. The Lifepond provides an easy way to create a compact and moveable wildlife pond in a small space. It provides a variety of habitat zones including a shady refuge underneath which is ideal for amphibians.

11 INSECT BOXES Insect and bug boxes should be sited in a warm and dry place, preferably in a position where they will catch the morning sun. A location near to vegetation, woodpiles or ponds will maximise the chance of your box being colonised. Most insect boxes can be attached to a tree or post at a height of 1-2 metres using a strong nail. Bumblebee boxes, however, should be sited on the ground or in a hedge or low wall in a sheltered, south-facing position. If your box has not been used after a year or two it may be worth moving it to a different location and to consider adding some nectar and other food plants.
