This small bat box is preferably placed on the facade but may also be suitable for installation in trees.
The box is finished in white to reduce the likelihood of overheating when installed in sunny, warm places. This bat box is also available in black (VK WS 01). The black finish has the advantage of allowing the temperature inside the box to warm up quickly when placed in a shady, cooler location.
Several species of bats can use this bat box, depending on the local species and where the box is hung. The box is suitable as a summer and/or breeding box, and in mild winters, it can also serve as a shelter.
The box is made of WoodStone® (WoodStone® is a mix of 100% FSC®-certified wood fibres and concrete) and comes with dowels and screws for mounting.
As a summer or breeding box, it is suitable for:

  • Common Pipistrelle
  • Soprano Pipistrelle
  • Nathusius’ Pipistrelle
  • Whiskered Bat
  • Brandt’s Bat
  • Leisler’s Bat
  • Brown Long-eared Bat
  • Daubenton’s Bat

In mild winters, it may also be used by:

  • Common Pipistrelle
  • Brown Long-eared Bat
  • Place the bat box in a suitable location on the facade using the provided dowels and screws.
  • Install the box at a minimum height of 3 meters.
  • The box is less suitable for installation in trees, but it can be done.
  • The box can be placed facing any wind direction.
  • Provide a clear approach and egress route for the box.
  • Do not place boxes above windows and doors.
  • Do not install the box on illuminated facades or in light from lampposts, etc.
  • It is preferred to have multiple boxes placed near each other. When doing so, vary the wind direction and altitude.

Bat boxes can be cleaned once a year in winter, preferably during a frost period. Be sure to check that the boxes are not occupied first! A special long-handled brush can be used to remove cobwebs and other debris from the box.
