Hard to enjoy those beautiful summer nights in the back yard with all those pesky mosquitoes and other night-time insects joining the party? There are chemical options, but they can’t be good for you or the backyard.
Bats can make all the difference! Did you know a single bat on average can hunt down 2-6 insects every minute? Try inviting bats to your backyard by providing a Bat House and see how they can help.
This bat house is designed to give bats a safe and welcoming home. It's handcrafted from high-quality pine to ensure it's sturdy and long-lasting, and its aerodynamic design minimizes the impact of rain and wind. Perfect for providing bats with an all-weather shelter.
Installation tips:
Ideally install on a house or other structure (wooden pole etc.). Can be installed in a tree, but predators are more likely.
The bat house should receive a minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Ideally install facing south or southeast, and not in a shaded location. Bats prefer warm and sunny locations for their roosts.
Install 3-6 meters above ground (10-20 feet).
A water source within 300 meters is ideal.
An uncluttered location is good, with no obstructing branches as bats need room to swoop.
Install in a dark location, away from artificial light. Bats may hunt at a light source, but they will not roost near one.
