Ignore the bit about parasites the reporter has misunderstood me on this bit and ticks.

Anymore than 10 ticks personally I like to access the hedgehog especially if around the face.

As the weather in London gets hotter, but less talked about is how creatures like hedgehogs cope with the temperature.

Us Rescues are seeing some horrific injuries caused by garden equipment, and I'll be totally honest with you 90% of the time they need to be put to sleep!
Please check before you cut!
