Description

The Flower-Insect Timed Count (FIT Count) is a 10-minute survey designed to collect new data on numbers of flower-visiting insects.

FIT Counts are suitable for all, in urban or rural locations, and can be done at any time during the FIT Count season – see the quick guide
for the season in your country.

An increasing amount of evidence suggests that pollinator species diversity has declined in many parts of the world, with the strongest evidence coming from Europe and North America. Less is known about changes in pollinator abundance, and we need much more data to be able to track this. You can help by doing a FIT Count, maybe even repeating it over the season. You don’t need to identify the insects to species level, only to within broad groups e.g. bumblebees, hoverflies, butterflies & moths, wasps.
