Anything we can do to encourage the hedgehogs, but not the rats from

Yes get some terrier men in.for your rats. Mine come about every six weeks
to sort them out.
I do have a huge cat, but he's a bit of a wuss about tackling the big ones
with the brown chisel teeth. He sorts out the small ones, no problem, but
those big ones, they're a job for the terriers, he claims ;-)
And he's right. some of the big ones even give the terriers a run for their
money, antiseptic needed to dab their bleeding noses where they've been well
bitten by a big rat. They don't seem to mind though, it seems to make them
more determined..
