Description
The Conservation Bat Box is expertly crafted from untreated, durable FSC-certified timber to offer superior insulation and longevity without harmful treatments.
Its twin vertical chambers with ladder-style grooves encourage multi-species occupancy, while the hinged roof allows easy inspection by licensed bat workers.
Featuring a water-based painted front, this bat box combines functionality with conservation-grade quality, making it an ideal habitat for professionals dedicated to preserving bat populations.
Siting
Site the Conservation Bat Box high up, 2.5m and 5m on a building or mature tree. Hang using the pre-drilled recycled plastic hanger. The ideal aspect is North, South West or South East, so the box receives only part sun during the day. If it is on an existing feeding or flight route, you are more likely to get an occupation.
Bats are a schedule 1 protected species under the Wildlife & Countryside Act. So, it is illegal for any member of the public to disturb a roost, handle or kill any bat. Bat boxes, therefore, must only be inspected by licensed bat workers. However, you can monitor your bat box without disturbance, look for mouse-sized droppings beneath the box as a clue to occupation or observe from a distance at dusk to see if bats are exiting the box to hunt.
Dimensions: 444 x 250 x 145 mm
