General description

The Eco Rocket Bat Box is an innovative solution designed for bats, featuring a weatherproof outer shell made from 100% recycled LDPE plastic and a wooden internal roost chamber. This bat box is ideal for mitigation projects where suitable buildings or trees for mounting are unavailable. It offers a large self-contained space for bats, allowing them to move freely within the box to select their preferred micro-habitat. The bat box is available in two configurations: a crevice roosting chamber and a cavity box, catering to different bat species.

Installation

To securely install the Eco Rocket Bat Box, approximately 1m of the pole should be buried below ground. It is recommended to consult a builder or structural engineer before erecting the pole, as ground conditions can vary. The pole is dispatched separately from the bat box for ease of installation and shipping. The only tool required for installation is a spanner to fix the box onto the pole.

Usage

This bat box is particularly useful in mitigation projects, ensuring maximum solar gain by placing it in an unshaded area or positioning it along a bat corridor, such as a hedgerow. It is often utilized on building sites to provide an alternative roost for bats during demolition activities.
