Hello.

For all the followers of EAFOAB, I just thought you would like to know that one council is taking the dormouse situation seriously, no matter what the cost

Here’s the link:

Whilst I am glad it’s not on my council bill, I do hope the first dormouse to use it has undergone a council Health and Safety check.
Love to All

this is probably more PR than ecology, as I don't know if there's any evidence these things work. However, it won't just be dormice who use them, also woodmice, rats an other rodents who can climb.

In a video clip the locals were somewhat surprised at the bridges being built and the cost.

Just how much does it really take to build a few ropeways across a road! I hope they have sensors which will count the number of users of the bridges, so it can be seen how justified the cost was.

I fully appreciate the need to encourage the dormouse population.
