    Hi Sandrina

    I suspect woodlice are a bit of an occupational hazard for hedgehogs, by which I mean, they probably can’t avoid them!

    If the hog house is otherwise empty you could empty out the woodlice and give it a good clean afterwards, then dry it thoroughly before replacing. I think woodlice like damp places, so that could be part of the problem. They still could come back again but it would be the hedgehogs choice whether to use the box or not if they did.
