5. The disturbance of any hanging tiles required to facilitate this proposal must be done outside the active bat season, (i.e. not between April and September), the tiles should be removed carefully by hand (lifting vertically) and that all workers be alert to signs of bats as explained on the Bat Conservation Trust website (https://www.bats.org.uk/advice/do-i-have-bats). If a bat is found, the tile must be replaced gently, work must stop immediately, and Natural England informed, with the contact information available on the website below. If the work must be done during the active bat season, it should be supervised by a bat-licensed ecologist to avoid any possibility of disturbing bats which might be roosting under the tiles. Rearson: To protect bats species.
6. Note to Applicant: In the unlikely event of any bats being found during demolition or construction, all work must stop immediately, and Natural England must be informed. Additional information is available on the Bat Conservation Trust website at https://www.bats.org.uk/advice/im-working-on-a-building-with-bats/ive-found-a-bat-during-works.
7. Note to Applicant: The Bat Conservation Trust recommends installing a bat brick/box at least 4 m above the ground, away from artificial light sources, sheltered from strong winds and exposed to the sun for part of the day, facing south, south-east or south-west. (https://www.bats.org.uk › our-work › putting-up-your-box) Swift nest boxes are best positioned under the eaves or on walls facing north, northeast or north-west out of direct sunlight, five metres above the ground, with clear adjacent airspace so swifts can access them in a high-speed direct flight.
