2. INFORMATIVE 1: Lighting can have a harmful effect on bats impacting on their use of a roost and also their commuting routes and foraging areas. Light falling on a roost access point is likely to delay bats from emerging, which can be especially damaging around dusk as that is when there is a peak in the number of insects. Lighting can also attract insects away from bat foraging areas, reducing food availability in darker areas. In the worst case scenario, it can cause the bats to desert the roost. Bats and their ‘roost’ sites are fully protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the latter of which deems them a Protected Species. Bats, birds and other nocturnal mammals should always be taken into account when lighting is being considered. It is respectfully advised that lighting is kept to a minimum around the roof area and is limited to illuminating the ground and not any possible access points or foraging corridor.
