Stop the use of all Pesticides at all NTU campuses.
They are an unnecessary and expensive use of dangerous chemical-agents.
Pesticides such as glyphosate have been banned for use in the European Union due to serious health concerns but are still used in the UK.
Unless deemed necessary for the removal of invasive non-native species (such as Japanese Knotweed or Giant Hogweed) and under the direction and/or supervision of an ecologist or conservationist, they are a highly unnecessary poison.
If the university is to be a truly hedgehog (and wildlife in general) - friendly organisation then the use of pesticides should be altogether stopped.
Please let's think about our wildlife and our people that visit our NTU sites every day, especially the ones that live on site, and stop the regular use of pesticides on each and every campus.
