Forestry
Commission pest alert
Posted 20th July 2010
The Forestry Commission issued a pest alert about the Oak Processionary Moth. Not only does this cause extensive damage to oak trees - it can also pose a risk to human and animal health owing to the irritant hairs on the caterpillars.
Please read the poster issued by the Forestry Commission and follow this link for further information.
So far the moth has been discovered only in West London, including at the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew, but it is important to report any sightings elsewhere to your local Tree Officer.
In Hackney, please contact the Arboricultural Manager with precise details of where you saw the outbreak:

Eco-friendly hostel in Pembrokeshire with tree-loving proprietors (Posted 13th August 2009)
Are you wondering where to spend a holiday? Why not make the acquaintance of Sue and
Chris, who run an eco-friendly hostel (ex-YHA) near the coastal path in
west Pembrokeshire and stay in their excellent and inexpensive
accomodation. TMs can recommend it wholeheartedly. The Old School Hostel is about 5 miles (8km) north-east of St. David's (Britain's smallest city). You can be assured of a warm welcome.
