Detecting is an activity, which like other leisure activities
requires some guiding principles. These few recommendations
will allow you to fully enjoy it while respecting laws,
environment and other people.
•
Enquire about and abide by the laws in force of the country or
the state before searching. It is of your responsibility to know
them and to abide by them.
•
Always ask the permission of the land owners where you want to
search.
•
Have regard for the natural environment in which you are
searching.
•
Don’t forget to backfill all holes you dig.
Avoid detecting in zones where battles took place
during the wars. Report any suspect object you might
discover to the authorities.
