Some fine work there, Ken. Thanks. Now then:
"Bats fly up in daze" = 'stun'. Nuts? Stab? Can't see anything...
"Fir tree exudes elemi when last bits appear" = 'resin'. I know what elemi is but what's the cryptic bit? Many thanks.

Fir tree exudes elemi when last bits appear.
Last letter of the words \"Fir tree exudes elemi when\"

Bats fly up in daze, I think is STUN (nuts backwards, bats, batty , mad)

Resin is spelt out in last letter (bit ) of 1st 5 words.

Stun or nuts probably depends on whether it is an across or down clue. Down will be stun.

SEEN TO. (equals treated). The answer is in the clue (last 2 letters of disease, 1st 4 of entomologists) The word caught tells you the answer is probably in the clue.
