How to Invite Wildlife into Your New Home

You have recently moved into your new house. You unpacked most of the boxes, so you can enjoy yourself a cup of coffee. You sit in the back patio and think this place could use a water feature. It also needs some greenery and colors. You miss the chirping of birds. With all of the moving disruption, the wildlife from your previous place has probably found the backyard of your neighbors to inhabit. However, you can invite a new lot of wildfire into your new backyard.

Hide Them

The absolute best approach to invite wildlife life into your yard is to give them somewhere to land and somewhere to cover up. Bushes, feathery or shaped, are a great tactic to call birds, rabbits, toads, and other animals into your lawn. Offer different statures and figures to them. Rabbits incline toward tightly interwined branches that are closer to the ground. Birds look for thick tall shrubberies or trees for hiding and nest building. Frogs attract toward a green ground cover. Squirrels enjoy taller trees, ideally something that grows nuts or seeds. 

Feed Them

The next important thing to plan is a food hotspot for the different creatures. Frogs will enjoy insects within and around the bushes. Just be sure that you are not spritzing bug spray around the bushes or you will poison your frogs too. Birds will thrive on bird feeders, pine cones plunged in peanut butter and rolled in birdseed or feeding socks. Providing them with bushes that bear berries during the winter season will ensure that they stick around the entire year. Hummingbirds also like to be taken care of, so make sure to frame up a feeder for them as well. Rabbits prefer lettuces and cabbages which you can easily grow among your bushes. Even you can use these vegetables in your meals. Squirrels will devour peanuts but they also consume from your bird feeders if given a chance. Bring butterflies to your backyard by planting flowers. 

Water Them

A water feature is one of the most serene, just as the most worthwhile furnishing that you can add to your yard for wildlife. A deep plate with rocks placed in it will help the butterflies drink water without drowning. Water basins are great, however you need to be cautious and clean them out every now and then, as they can be a rearing ground for bugs and mosquitoes. A pond water feature will keep the ground damped for frogs and let an occasional bird find its way to sip without dripping in. Rabbits prefer small flat dishes leveled with water but they can also manage to drink from your pond. If you place these water features in mulch and put rocks in them, you will pull in butterflies too.
