How to: Help different groups of wildlife
 
The Wildlife Gardening Forum’s ‘How-to’ pages summarise current science and good practice to give you simple but authoritative advice on how to achieve the best results for wildlife in your garden. The advice is for gardens in Britain and Ireland, and may not hold true for elsewhere in the world.
 
The guides below should be useful if you want to adapt your garden to help particular groups of wildlife, although the ideal would be to make your garden friendly to all sorts of wildlife!   These guides cross-reference many of the other How to guides on plants and habitats.   Click on the images to download
