There are many things you can do if you are interested in bats. If you own a building with a bat roost the best thing you can do is allow them undisturbed access. If you would like to encourage bats in your area we have information on how to garden for bats or carry out bat-friendly farming, for example. If you are involved in a local Tidy Towns committee or organisation we have developed a leaflet with information that you may find useful. We’d also appreciate any records or sightings of bats that you would like to submit to us. If you are concerned about a development in your area that may impact on bats, see the Bats and Development page for more information.
