Mitigation and Enhancement
Professional advice can be given to reduce the impact of a development on wildlife and protect natural habitats, coupled with advice on how to improve a development’s wildlife potential.
Design and construction of new bat roosts and improvement of existing roosts.
Management Plans and Monitoring
Management plans can be produced for land within new development to optimise wildlife potential. In addition to this, monitoring schemes can be set up to record the effects of management so that positive and negative results of management can be identified and changed accordingly.
Habitat Creation
Professional advice can be given on the creation of new habitat, ie creation of wild flower meadows (plant species, grazing, mowing), pond creation (shape, size, plants) and management.
