Can anyone advise on how to discover if trees are "protected".
We have a major problem with large Lime trees on and around our property. We and several neighbours, are concerned on the safety of local children, with falling branches-sticky deposits attracting wasps (which have stung several children).
We are keen to get rid but have been told that they are protected.
We don't want to contact the local council person because she is a real stickler and will not listen.
many thanks
