Last week our ranger team were refreshing bait stations on Staffa. These boxes contain a tasty cocoa flavoured wax which we check for chew marks from invasive non-native mammalian predators to protect our seabirds. #BiosecurityForScotland Biosecurity for LIFE SCRA National Trust for Scotland

This goes for kayaks too! Kayaks can also provide a safe home for a rodent over winter, so do check your kayak thoroughly for any uninvited passengers before hitting the water. #paddlewithoutpassengers #BiosecurityforScotland

Some simple checks are all it takes. Before putting your boat back on the water check for any signs such as droppings or chew marks, that a rodent has overwintered in your boat. #sailwithoutstowaways #BiosecurityforScotland
