Stag beetle larvae emerging
We found fantastic stag beetle larvae emerging from old wooden sleepers while preparing to renovate the vegetable patches, with our grant from the National Garden Scheme Community Garden Grants. We carefully relocated the larvae along with their wood. It can take 3 to 7 years before the larvae become adults. The stag beetle is protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act.
