Protected species

Where impacts to a badger sett cannot be avoided a licence can usually be obtained from Natural England to permit disturbance or destruction. Such works much be undertaken between July and November inclusive.

Our ecologists are very experienced at obtaining mitigation licences, sometimes for last-minute situations where works need to be expedited quickly. We have the expertise and authority to find solutions and will always provide sound advice to ensure things go smoothly. When it comes to closing a sett and excluding badgers, we have the know-how and skill to do this safely and efficiently.
