Description
Natural Timber Bat Box
Bats are amazing mammals but their habitats and roosts both natural and constructed have been lost over recent years. Providing a roost will help bats to survive winter and remain in their traditional areas.
This is a natural wood Bat Box that will fit into any garden, woodland or house wall site. Made from high quality durable timber providing longevity and excellent insulation. The narrow entrance and strong timber help to discourage predators accessing the bats while in torpor.
Siting and Positioning:
Position this bat box on a building or mature tree using the pre-drilled back plate hanger. It should be sited high up between 2.5 to 5 metres. Place the box so it receives only part sun during the day. If it is on an existing feeding or flight route bats are more likely to visit and occupy the roost.
Which bats might we see visiting this box:
This single chamber bat box will provide suitable bat roosting space for a variety of species including Pipistrelle, Noctule, Leisler`s, Natterer`s, Daubentons and Brown Long-eared bats.
