bats!

Join your local bat group, you get emailed all thats going on plus changes in legislation law etc and when they do meet you will learn alot and i couldnt agree more with dean as they can be rude and very closed rank, you just have to humer them! The bat conservation trust is also a good one to join as with out the group meets unless you pay for them you get info packs every so often news changes etc!

Dont want to put a downer on the joining a group bit, BUT, I joined our local group nearly a year ago, and also tried to get into the Bat Conservation Trust, and offered my services (FREE) but was treated as if i was a murderer! One guy even said "Oh, a tree surgeon eh? I recon they are responsible for the national decline in numbers of bats over the last 30 years!"

 

Although i will try my best to avoid any disturbance of any wildlife habitat, i will not get involved with any of the groups!

 

Just my ten.

Surely sticking an endoscope in is better than cutting them out? Its impossible to to get a licensed bat handler in to inspect every tree we work in. Its also a miniscule chance of sticking into the middle of a roost. But it may help to detect signs of bat use etc?

 

I you do get caught by batman just say you were looking for nesting birds and not bats

 

It is silly that you cant go looking for them, better to chop right through a roost
