SMALL WAYS TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE

Build a pond

It’s time for landscaping projects – and no feature is more useful to a wide range of wildlife than a pond.

Add a bird box

Birds will be scouting about for potential homes. If they don’t take up the offer, bees might.

Keep wormeries frost free

Freezing can kill compost worms. Move them into a shed, greenhouse or indoors.

Net ponds

Leaves in your pond can break down and build up as sludge. Remove leaves often or add a temporary net on top.
