Hi
I'm looking for some basic advice on dormice. I know that they and their habitat is protected ie cannot handle, disturb etc under the Wildlife and Countryside Act and Conservation of Habitats etc but I have a query in respect of a) if you don't know they are there can you be prosecuted if you carry out site works and have disturbed or destroyed them in ignorance or b) if you know they are there what is seen as 'reasonable' to mitigate the risks of disturbing them?
Many thanks
Sue
