@cornwallcouncil.bsky.socialSay hello to #Cornwall Council's Dragonfly Squad!
A Cormac Environment team has come up with a rather unusual way to keep biting insects at bay - dragonfly hats.
Operative Harry Blake had the idea, and the team reckons the decoys have worked a treat, with no need for insect repellent.
@cornwallcouncil.bsky.social#NEWS A covert camera has caught a van being used to fly-tip twice in just three months.
The footage captured tyres and roofing tiles being dumped at Minorca Lane in Bugle. The van’s owner has now been prosecuted.
@cornwallcouncil.bsky.socialWhat makes a good book easier to enjoy?
Ken from @cornwalllibraries.bsky.social is dyslexic himself and shares some of the things that help him, from graphic novels to adaptations at Penzance Library.
@cornwallcouncil.bsky.socialIs your home ready for storm season?
Now is a good time to check your flood risk, sign up for flood warnings and make sure your flood preparation equipment is ready to use.
It’s much easier to prepare now than when the rain is already falling.
