Bat Box

This bat box is designed for those bat species which would naturally roost in crevices. It is especially suitable for both Common Pipistrelles and Soprano Pipistrelles. These two species are the most abundant bats in the UK and most frequently use bat boxes.

This bat box is supplied with two parallel crevices but if you'd rather provide a box for bats which prefer a larger roosting chamber such as noctules then the internal divider is easy to remove. To remove the internal divider just unscrew the single screw holding the roof down, remove the roof and the internal divider simply slides out. Improved draught-proofing makes these boxes the ideal roost for our indigenous bats.

It follows design specifications from the Bat Conservation Trust and uses untreated ply in the manufacture of this box. This box has a grooved back for easy access, and an accurately sized entrance / exit slot to the floor of the box. Manufactured with surface sunk nails to resist rusting, untreated due to the sensitivity of bats to even non-toxic wood preservatives.
