Double Chamber Bat Box (tree-mountable)

Description

Versatile and Effective Wildlife Conservation

Protecting local biodiversity is crucial, and installing a tree-mountable double-chamber bat box is a practical step toward supporting our flying mammals. Habitat loss is a significant threat to bats in South Africa. By offering a dedicated roosting space, you actively contribute to their survival. In return, a single bat can consume up to 600 insects in a single night, providing your outdoor space with excellent, natural mosquito management.

Adaptable Installation for Any Garden

While offering all the benefits of our wall-specific model, this versatile version provides ultimate placement flexibility. You can easily attach it to a sturdy tree trunk, a wooden pole, or a flat wall surface. The package includes the necessary mounting nails, enabling a quick, straightforward setup. For optimal occupancy, place the bat house as high as possible in a sheltered, wind-free location that receives partial sunlight during the day. Ensure there is a clear flight path for the bats to enter and exit.

Thoughtful Design for Optimal Comfort

Crafted to meet the exacting standards of the Kent Bat Society, this shelter provides a thermally stable and rainproof environment. The interior features a grooved wood design, giving the bats an excellent surface to cling to safely. The dual-chamber layout offers ample space for a small colony of up to 16 bats to roost comfortably together.

Zero Maintenance Required

You never need to worry about cleaning this habitat. The smart, open-bottom configuration allows droppings to fall straight through, making it entirely self-cleaning. It also prevents birds from taking over the space, ensuring the bats always have a secure home.
