Hi all, My name is Max Bell of MB Bird & Wildlife Control. I am professional self employed wildlife manager. I am currently contracted on two estates, where I control Grey Squirrel populations. I use two methods of control which are trapping using spring and live capture traps and shooting at bait stations. I cover all areas of Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire. I am looking to add a further one or two more contracts to my portfolio, if there are any intrested estates or land owners looking for professional grey squirrel control. Please feel free to share my details to any one that may be intrested in my services. MB Bird & Wildlife Control. [email protected] Max Bell 07533359900 Quote Reply to this topic...

Hey everyone, For those who don't know me, I’m Jesse Coleman, and I run a company based in New Zealand. We’ve recently acquired a LiDAR unit and have begun exploring its potential. Initially, we aimed to use it for data acquisition, estimation, and presentations for larger-scale helicopter work. However, we've been so impressed with the technology and its results that we're now incorporating it into our day-to-day services. I’d love to hear from those of you who are already using this tech. Where have you found it to be game-changing? Whether it's tree inventories, site scanning, harvest models, or something else, I’m interested to hear more about how you're utilising LiDAR and where you see its future heading. Looking forward to your insights.

Access for large tippers. Available 7 days a week but please contact first on 07805803285 so gate can be unlocked. All types of logs and log cord taken. No limit on load size.

I saw your site referenced on the moneysavingexpert site, but I'm not an arborist, so forgive me if I'm trespassing here. I have a question about trees on Crown Land. A very small piece of land - less than 20m square probably - sits next to my house and has five trees on, a couple of which are taller than my house. I understand that the land used to belong to the house builders, but they went into liquidation and so automatically that land is transferred to the Crown. A few years ago I did enquire about purchasing the land, but it was too expensive. I believe, though unsure, I have the right to maintain the trees, but it's unfortunately out of my budget to arrange for the trees to be lopped and the Crown seemingly have no responsibilities. The local council won't help. Do I just have to make sure I have adequate insurance in case the trees damage my property, either with their roots (they are only around 8 metres from the house wall) or because they fall in a storm? I'd appreciate any advice. Thank you.

In the video that follows we can see different types of fungi. video-output-408D6DD4-DC04-418E-A4CF-A447A25A5DDD.mov

Hello I'm looking for a gang of tree planters local to Axminster to plant a couple of thousand trees. Anyone interested? Good Rates.

I am cleaning up my garden from all the snow damage and still have loads of conifers (and laurel) to cut down. I had an issue with taking green waste to our local depot because are vehicle is classed as "commercial" - 4x4 with a cab. We are waiting on a license for this vehicle but are only allowed 6 visits a year with this vehicle to dump waste and it will take more than that. In addition, my brother won't always be around to move the chained sawed trees for me. I cannot afford to bring in chipping services as there is so much to do. Soon as we get through one lot there is more to do. Can anyone advise if there are any tree services companies who would like the wood for free to chip or log? I am in the Newbury area. If this is posted in the wrong section - I apologise. Can repost if there is a more suitable place. With thanks, Kat

Hello to everybody... Since August 2017 this year, I have been creating a public record of events in the form of small video productions. They depict the ongoing controversial tree feelings happening in Sheffield to date. I am very keen to hear from any Arboriculturists with their views regarding how they think their industry might be affected, when actions of this nature by Sheffield City Council go ahead. Although some of the videos I have put online may look to be a little biased, I can assure you that my intention is to give everybody an equal opportunity to have their say and put their point across, but unfortunately some videos have ended up looking like my intention is not as intended, for which on my part, if I have offended anybody, I sincerly apologise as it was not my intention in the first place and I can assure you, it is not my intention as time goes by...! Although I have highlighted in the past to all concerned in the videos that their points of view are important, I do believe and understand their concerns for whatever they might be, as to why they have chosen not to speak with reference to what they might want to say if anything at all...! Therefore I am extending my offer to any Arboriculturists as well as those I continue to encounter on a weekly basis. However, what I would like to say now is that each and every individual including myself, must accept responsibility for their own actions, even more so in the presence of a video recording camera...! Are you an Arboriculturist working in Sheffield now or have been and do you want to share your views? I would be very interested in knowing your views either on hear or by a private message if anonymity is your preference. You can message me directly on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BANAMAN.Productions/ As an Arboriculturist, have you been subject to any threats or violence either physically or verbally while working on the PFI contract in Sheffield? Have you witnessed any threats or violence either physically or verbally while working on the PFI contract in Sheffield? As any aspect of your job working on the PFI contract in Sheffield affected you in any way at home or at work? Does your future work depend on keeping as many healthy street trees as possible? If you are an Arboriculturist in another part of the country not working on the PFI contract in Sheffield, I would also be interested in your views. Have you been following what is happening in Sheffield regarding the current ongoing tree situation and want to share your view? Does your future work depend on keeping as many healthy street trees as possible in our city's towns and villages? How would you feel if you had to endure what the Arboriculturists working on the PFI contract in Sheffield?

Hi there guys just a quick question about getting new clients, obviously there is the conventional ways like website advertising and word of mouth etc. But I'm looking for anyone with tried and tested less conventional ways of reaching people in need of tree works?

We are a voluntary group and have built 6km of a 26km trail along a river in New Zealand. This is for the community to use for running, biking etc so they don't need to use the highway. We are planting both natives and exotics along the Trail and one of our very generous donors would like to see what we are planting and where so she can follow where her donations are being used. Is there a app that anyone has used which is preferably free so that we can mark on it the 500 trees she has given us so far and then keep marking future trees on Google Maps so she can follow this . Her health doesn't allow her to walk the trail . Any help would be appreciated I cannot find any other site to post on or any program that allows me to send an image of the trail map with the tree positions shown - at a price we can afford.

I want to start by saying I know nothing about trees, but I think the two in my front yard are not healthy. They have black bark almost all the way around and it is brittle and falling off. The trees still produce a lot of leaves, but I want to make sure they are healthy. Any thoughts? I think these are oak, but unsure.
