Wildlife Houses & Shelters

Wildlife houses and shelters for your garden

Gardens can provide valuable places for wildlife to feed, rest, breed and take cover. Adding the right wildlife house or shelter can help make your outdoor space more welcoming, whether you want to support mammals, amphibians, insects or birds.

Different species have very different needs, so choosing a purpose-designed home is important. Our range includes hedgehog houses for secluded resting and nesting areas, bat boxes that provide additional roosting opportunities, and bee and insect houses offering suitable spaces for a variety of beneficial garden insects.

Choose the right wildlife home

Think first about the wildlife you already see in your garden, as well as the habitat around you. A quiet corner with plenty of cover may suit a hedgehog house, while bat boxes generally need to be positioned higher up in a suitable, undisturbed location. Insect houses can be useful near flowering plants, and shelters for frogs and toads are best placed close to cool, damp and naturally sheltered areas.

You can also explore homes and shelters designed for squirrels, butterflies, dormice, ducks and swans. Always follow the placement guidance supplied with the product, as the best position will depend on the species and type of shelter.

Create a more wildlife-friendly garden

A wildlife house works best as part of a garden that also provides food, water and natural cover. Planting flowers, shrubs and hedges, leaving some areas less tidy and avoiding unnecessary disturbance can all help wildlife find the resources it needs.
