Reptiles

Our fully qualified and licensed ecologists have extensive experience in supporting clients where protected species or reptiles are a factor in development.

Common lizard, slow-worm, adder, and grass snake, are very prevalent on brown field sites such as disused quarries and allotments in town centres, as well as in rural habitats. The rarer smooth snake and sand lizard are found in more specialised habitat types. Whatever the habitat, our knowledge and expertise help to ensure that your development proceeds cost-effectively and in compliance with your legal obligations.
Our services include:

• • Reptile habitat suitability assessments
  • Full reptile surveys
  • Design and implementation of habitat regeneration, creation and enhancement
  • Mitigation work including installation of fencing and habitat management to enable efficient translocation of reptiles
  • Ecological clerk of works

Full technical support to any statutory licence applications
