As modern houses tend to have better insulation, it has become increasingly difficult for bats to find accommodation.
This bat house is the perfect shelter for several species of small bats. A good place to hang the house is on the outside wall. Box adapted for bats with entrance hole in the bottom. Fluted inner roof helps the bat get a foothold when it hangs to rest and climbs inside.
Location of the nest:
It is important to remember that the nest is placed protected and high, at least 3 meters above the ground. Avoid facing south where the sun is shining, as it easily gets too hot in the nest. Avoid very weather-exposed locations so that rainwater does not penetrate a hibernating bat. The nest can be advantageously opened and cleaned once a year, preferably in August when the young have grown and then at night when the bat is not at home. It makes it easier for the bat if there is a relatively free approach area around the nest. It can be placed both on trees and buildings.
