With the variation in squirrel numbers, how will the FC be able to accurately predict the ever-changing threat?
A16.The index trapping method, which aims to predict years of high squirrel damage in order to better target control activities, is currently being developed. The method explores the relationship between grey squirrel populations, winter food availability, spring breeding success and damage the following summer. If and when the index trapping predictive method becomes available, grant availability may be adjusted year to year according to priorities.
