Offer small families of bats a place to roost & to shelter their young pups with our smart Orkney Bat House
- that isn't in your loft!
The entire inside of this bat house is grooved so that the bats can easily get a grip on the walls, with a narrow open bottom to prevent build up inside. Crafted in sustainable pine wood & treated to last longer outside, this bat house also boasts a smart Charcoal stained roof that not only helps keep the shelter insulated, but lets rainwater run off. With two handy holes to assist with hanging, it's easy to mount the Orkney Bat House on a wall.
When placing the Bat House, choose a spot that is sunny rather than shady, but isn't brightly lit all day, & if at all possible, close to a permanent source of water. Trees are not suitable mounts due to their shade, & it should also be kept well away from vents or roads.
