Bats are a UK- and European-protected species. As such, all UK bat species, roosts, and breeding sites are protected by both UK and European law. Therefore, it is illegal to disturb bats or damage, destroy, or obstruct bat resting, sheltering, and breeding locations. Committing any of these crimes can result in up to six months in prison and/or an unlimited fine.[1] Consequently, bat surveys have become a critical aspect of building and renovation projects. However, bats’ preference for roosting in difficult-to-access crevices, voids, and hollows combined with their nocturnal activities makes conducting meaningful surveys challenging. Thankfully, Guide has developed a TK612 Thermal Imaging Monocular specifically for ecological and conservation applications, such as bat surveys.
