Terrible Home & Life Habits That Are Harming The Wildlife Around You

8.Habitat Destruction for Landscaping

It feels nice to have a manicured lawn, though it doesn’t mean it’s good for the environment or the wildlife around you. Clearing natural habitats for landscaping purposes can displace and harm local wildlife. Instead, choose native plants that support local ecosystems, and design landscapes with wildlife-friendly features.

If you want to manicure your yard, try filling it with beautiful native trees, flowers, and bushes. This will provide more of a home to the wildlife around you instead of taking it away from them. It’s their home as much as it is yours! Birds look for dense shrubs to nest, and if you’re someone who’s cleaned out your yard, they won’t have anywhere to go (Nurture Native Nature).
