Installation

It should be positioned as high as possible in a sheltered, sunny location. It is recommended to install several boxes facing different directions to provide a range of conditions for bats.

Usage

Bats may take time to discover and occupy the new roosting space, which can take several years. Signs of occupation include droppings on the landing area and chittering noises from inside during warm afternoons and evenings.

Other information

The box features a self-cleaning design that requires no maintenance, as droppings fall out of the entrance slot. It is important to be patient while waiting for bats to inhabit the box.
