Sir, Now that the firework season will soon be with us, I would appeal to those who are thinking of preparing a bonfire to think of small field creatures, such as mice and hedgehogs. They are in the habit of nesting in such structures, and are difficult to see at first glance Please make a careful inspection while building and before lighting the bonfire, preferably in a quiet period, as these little creatures are easily frightened. All pets should be kept indoors on November 5.
