Contract Bat Surveys
We are able to deliver contract bat surveys for a whole range of scenarios including where these have been requested by local authority planning departments and/or Scottish Natural Heritage. The following are a range of examples that we have been involved with in the past.
Mitigation & Compensation Solutions

As part of the planning process you may be required to carry out bat surveys of a site prior to planning consent. We specialise in carrying out this work, and should we find that bats are using the site we are also able to assist you with the Habitats Directive, Scottish Government licence application process.
It is important when you appoint a bat consultant to make sure that they have the licences in place allowing them to do survey work within roost sites. This is because, if bats are roosting on the site there is only a limited amount of work that a unlicensed bat worker can carry out legally. At Echoes Ecology we hold the licences to carry out this type of work throughout Scotland.
