The JBG owns both specialist and generalist equipment that, when we are not using it, we may agree to loan to other individuals or organisations for bat related research.
Bat group members that are familiar with our equipment that wish to borrow equipment for personal use (for non-JBG projects) or for use by analogous organizations can complete the following form: or alternatively, contact us on enquiries@jerseybatgroup.org for further information.
Please also read the following information form and if you prefer you can download this, complete and scan it back to us.
The Jersey Bat Group will from time to time send samples for DNA analysis for species identification.
If any of our members have bat droppings that they would like analysed, please contact us. The cost is around £60 per analysis so it would need to be from one of our rarer bats.
Members of the public who find bat droppings and that would like to know what species of bats you have can submit samples directly to the UK laboratories for analysis. The cost for such a service is around £60 per sample.
Please contact us on enquiries@jerseybatgroup.org and we can provide you with further information.
