What are some homes u can build for wild animals?

My sis and I want to build some homes for wild animals.
I already built a bird house, but thanks for the thought! :-) Thanks Harry,daprasi,and Lau.Love ur ideas, but i cant rate who has the best answer so i will leave u off.Gr8 job!

:-)
a bird box
a hedgehod house (same as bird box just larger and with an entrance hole)
a field mouse house (a tennis ball with a small hole cut into it on a bamboo stick or something) works brilliantly, but put in a field or somewhere so you dont encourage mice to your gardens
a slug house…just turn a plantpot that has no holes in upsidown on grass…
ermmmm……….anything like that really….to be honest, im like you an yur sis too lol!

    1. Put out things like cotton balls, pet hair, wool and dried grass ear trees and birds might use it to build their nest.

    2. A thick piece of wood with 6" holes that are from 1/8" 5/16" in diameter and 1/2" to 3/4" apart from each other. Bees might move in.

    3. A thin but wide and long piece of wood laid on the ground will give insects a home.

    4. A simple pile of nonpoisonous sticks.

    5. A small pipe half-buried in the ground will make a good place for a toad to live.
