What is habitat creation?

Habitat creation is the process of establishing and creating new environments in which plants and animals can live, breed and eat, whether that be bats, birds and mammals, or fungi and invertebrates. With our habitat creation services, we will help you create a strong ecosystem.

This may involve woodland creation, in which our experts will assist you with selecting and planting trees, which will then act as a food source for wildlife, or through enhancing your existing woodlands and creating additional habitats.

Our wide range of habitat creation services enable us to develop spaces of all sizes for a variety of species. We can support with:

While we do offer garden clearance services to remove your outdoor space of waste, debris, unwanted trees and stumps, there are occasions in which deadwood can be a great resource for biodiversity. Deadwood can help to create homes and food sources for insects, birds and a wide range of other plants and animals. We can retain, manage or move deadwoods to support local ecosystems depending on your requirements.

We are highly experienced in installing artificial roosts to provide birds and bats a safe habitat.

Using various tree pruning techniques like coppicing, we can stimulate lower branch growth, which will help create habitat opportunities for birds, insects and more.

Many animals such as owls, bats and birds often seek refuge in tree hollows. We can create habitats for these animals by making cavities within tree trunks. This type of work requires precision and must be carried out by a professional, which is where Essex Gardening Services comes in.

Veteranisation is a technique used by our team to accelerate the natural ageing process of trees. While newly planted trees are a wonderful addition to any outdoor space, older trees can often provide more habitat opportunities for plants and animals.
