The wandering Toad #insect #nature #wildlife

The Toad must have come from my wildlife garden and wandered into our garage. I removed it from the garage and put it near to our toad house and it went into it straight away.

If you like wildlife gardening or want to turn your garden into a wildlife haven or dig a wildlife pond why not thing about buying a frog and toad house.

They provide a safe refuge for frogs and toads and the robust shelter is made from a mix of wood and concrete. It's likely to be used throughout the year, but will be especially valuable as a winter hibernation site. Frogs and toads are declining and as they eat lots of bugs, slugs and snails, they're definitely worth helping!

All Amphibians including newts like to hibernate in a cool, dark and damp shelter that is safe from predators. They like to get a little way underground if they can, so give them a helping hand by creating their very own hide out where can sleep through winter and emerge refreshed and ready to go for a spring of mating and spawning. Get out there on a warm, damp spring evening and you may see one of the inhabitants heading off to look for love or feast on your slugs.
