Here is a "Metal detecting Code of ethics"...
As to protect it from scrutiny and to preserve it for future enthusiasts to enjoy...
Metal detecting has a Code of Ethics. Hereās how you can be a positive ambassador of the hobby, protecting it for the future.
Respect private property and do not metal-detect without the property ownerās permission.
Do not litter and pack out what you take in and remove all trash found by you.
Do not knowingly trespass.
When given permission, leave all gates and other accesses to land as you found them.
Do not damage natural resources, wildlife habitats, or property in general.
Use thoughtfulness, consideration and courtesy at all times when detecting around or amongst others.
Abide by the laws, ordinances or regulations that may govern your search.
AND ALWAYS...
fill all holes, regardless how remote the location, and make every attempt to dig in a way that will limit traces of your dig and damage to vegetation.
IF anyone else wants to add to this... feel free.
