About Bat Specialists
Bat specialists carry out the surveys and licensing required when development may affect bat roosts. All UK bat species and their roosts are legally protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. Preliminary Roost Assessments (PRAs) identify buildings or trees with bat roost potential, while emergence and re-entry surveys confirm roost presence and species. If a roost is confirmed, a European Protected Species (EPS) mitigation licence from Natural England is required before works can proceed. Bat specialists design mitigation and compensation measures — alternative roost features, timing restrictions, and sensitive lighting schemes — that satisfy both planning conditions and licensing requirements.
