All workers must be informed of the possibility of bats roosting under the tiles. If a bat (or signs of bats such as droppings) is found, all work in that area must stop immediately and the tile must be carefully replaced without disturbing the bat. Reason: To protect wildlife species
6. Note to Applicant: Biodiversity enhancement is required. A bat brick/box and a swift brick/nest box may be appropriate to build into the extensions. Built in boxes do not require maintenance and cannot fall off. The Bat Conservation Trust recommends installing a bat brick/box at least 4m 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.
