- Bats may use it for roosting, to form a colony or to shelter their young
- for installation on external walls
This is the ideal Bat Box for all types of Bats that inhabit buildings. The Bats may use it for roosting, to form a colony or to shelter their young.
Internally it has two main areas which can be viewed at any time by removing the front panel. The hole at the bottom provides the entrance and allows droppings to fall out. The box requires no maintenance or cleaning. Bats search for and inhabit spaces which suit their own particular habits and requirements; their differing preferences have been carefully reflected in the design of this product. For example, the outside of the front panel has been roughened to enable the animals to land and hang on to it securely, and access is via a step-like recess to ensure that even inexperienced young Bats quickly become accustomed to it.
Occupants:
Typical bat species that inhabit buildings, including Common Pipistrelle, Serotine Bat, Parti-coloured Bat and many more.
Material:
special weather-resistant, air-permeable and rot-proof SCHWEGLER wood-concrete
Size:
W 35 x H 60 x D 9 cm
Colour:
The front panel is painted during manufacture. Not on the rear side, to allow better contact with the façade plaster when eventually installed in a façade. If you wish to match an existing colour, it can be painted with an air-permeable wall paint.
Installation:
Position 3 metres or higher above the ground in a place where there is a clear flight path for Bats entering and leaving the box.
Using the four screws and plugs provided, the box can be easily attached to most types of external brick, timber or concrete walls. It will also attract Bats if it is placed inside a roof space or inside historic buildings. When it is fixed to timber we recommend that the gaps between the wall and the box are sealed with silicone to prevent moisture being trapped.
Inside:
Inside the roost, a special surface structure is incorporated on the back which are good insulators and are used by the Bats as perches, and the inside front has a special porous coating which helps to maintain the ideal temperature inside the box.
The internal layout means that there are three different areas from which Bats can hang and which offer different degrees of brightness and temperature. There are also non-slip areas, gaps ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 cm in width, and places to hide.
Includes:
Bat Box, screws and plugs.
