Not some developers pulling a fast one with a rogue crew? Seen any survey types wandering about 🤔 k

Often there is staining around the cavity, with flies in summer but occasional use overnight is the catchout. Hence scoping before starting yr saw. If work can be done with a hand saw around the tree, that can be a possibility. K
-
Just post n shame, blatant offence. Should have read further up by the way 🙄 K
-
It did thump down 😳 didnt put sticks under it as the main road into the caravan park had viewrs parked up to watch us and didnt want a stick getting flipped through their windows ! K
-
Yes. That is apparent. You need a Bat scoping qualification to inspect, a Bat handlers certification to touch. Presence of Bats will determine yr next step. If any, K

And thats after I put it on the deck . 2002 when I had nice hair

No...

Thanks for that - did save me a lot of typing there is usually a solution to habitat issues , just needs a creative mind to come up with one. Most important is yr due dilligence , get stuff on paper, then you have a defendable position . Last sett evacuation i did - a known sett - knew there were no badgers , the traps had no shots , applied fr license and put the exclusions in - done . K

You see Matty, its part of legislation. Hate it or not, i have to point out possibilities to clients and then come up with answer, which i do and the job gets done. Based on my experience and qualifications. Dunno why that should piss anyone off when job gets done. The fines and adverse publicity can finish a company, K

I think that was the opposite on here, trolling is one thing i wouldnt bother with esp as others have already pointed out such members who far exceed any posting count i could ever manage. Who would have thought mentioning Bats would get that volume of bile ? K
-
Feel free to point such out then, you clearly have nothing better to do. K
-
Sorry John 🙄 obvs there is a vein of animosity here, idle hands and all that. K
-
No, yr right, it looks bad and juvenile. Professional opinions will vary to a degree, but you dont want ranting arses venting spleens cos they think they can. Certainly any input should be of value if it helps the OP. K

I do like Bats Ian, but them am Bat certified, so i would. K
-
You could be more correct than you know Kev, but am gonna hang on to my rigging kit in the loft just incase 😉 K
-
Jesus 🙄 do you just sit there with this boiling in yr brain? And this aint the first time... K
-
Hmmm, just watched the Matrix last night and just read this now, might stay in today 😳 K
-
I have my fleet of heavy lifting drones at the ready, dont panic ( does need twinned drones fr family pack of andrex at the mo 😣) k
-
Well, one other point is that split is a good Bat cavity, so would be looking at that first. I think pruning reduction would be better than whole branch removal, as the tensions built up in the wood around that split will be a problem! K
-
Looks like its growth pattern has overloaded a mechanically poor bend in the branch. There is no evidence of previous pruning or deadwooding in that shot. Possibly relieving some loading or tip reduction could help. But Only if there is a target under that tree would i be worried. K
-
Yes. Astounding country in many ways. But not enuff fr me. K ( that includes Berkshire 😉 )
-
Quite likely too, lot of Larch got the chop of late 😕 K
-
On the left could be Dunkeld, they look similar trees. Glad to see you found Larch in Wales! K
-
Absolutely sure both chains same? Only thing i could think was a guage difference 050 in an 058 rail fr example. Not experienced this happening myself, good bar n chain n all sharp n tidy just should work! K
-
No... But good effort though and sharpen the dogs before you put them on or you will scuff the cases 😳 K
