How to Landscape for Wildlife
As urban development increases and wildlife of all kinds lose their natural homes, it becomes more and more important for homeowners to provide wildlife with a safe haven in the middle of it all. Maybe your part will be to dedicate a portion of your yard to attract a certain kind of wildlife.
As wildlife areas are lost to development, wildlife depends more and more on homeowners to provide food for them. If you want to attract a variety of wildlife to your yard, the most important thing you must do is to provide food.
Landscaping with plants that are native to the area not only provides better food and cover for native wildlife than do no-native plants but on an average require less care and resources to maintain.
Choose plants that are adapted to the growing conditions in your area. Generally, native species and their selections from nearby sources are a good first choice because they are adapted to local conditions and the timing of wildlife use. Any reputable nursery personnel can help you with native plant selection.
Many people don't even realize the difference a change to their landscaping approach can make to their property and their lives. Finding a way to create a setting in their garden for wildlife can change the way people feel about nature and themselves.
Living in a built-up urban environment means you don’t see as much wildlife as you do in the country. However there are several ways in which you can actively encourage wildlife to visit your garden and make a habitat there. Let’s take a look at the various ways you can create a mini urban wildlife habitat.
