A lot of people think it's a good idea to put them outside after Halloween
It involves scraping the insides of the pumpkins out and carving them with a spooky design before placing tealight candles inside. While this activity is fun, a warning has been issued as it could turn deadly.
The Woodlands Trust are now pleading with people to not dump their unwanted pumpkins outside especially in wooded areas - Lancs Live reports. The trust has explained how thousands of tonnes of pumpkins are thrown away each Halloween - and if certain animals manage to get hold of them, it can cause serious problems. Pumpkins may seem like an easy meal for hedgehogs but if they eat a large amount of the pumpkin flesh, it is likely to cause stomach upset and diarrhoea.
If you don't want to do that, the best way to dispose of a pumpkin is in your food waste or compost bin. Alternatively you could bury it well in the soil for the worms to enjoy.
