Bat Detector Kit In Stock Now

Why survey? A number of our bat species are important indicators that can tell us about the health of our ecosystem. Changes in population numbers can indicate when there are declines in insects, or when habitats are poorly managed or destroyed (https://www.bats.org.uk).

About the kit: Bat detectors are designed to pick up the echolocation calls of the bats. The bat detector translates these calls into sounds we can hear. The Magenta detector can help determine if bats are present on site but isn’t reliable enough to identify the species.

This kit has been provided by Surrey Wildlife Trust (SWT). After borrowing this kit, you may wish to sign-up for SWT's Wilder Communities (https://www.surreywildlifetrust.org/get-involved/projects/wilder-communities).
