- The box can also be placed on facades.
- Install the box at a minimum height of 3 meters.
- The box can be positioned facing any wind direction.
- Provide a clear approach and egress path 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. If installed in trees, we also recommend checking the box’s suspension annually.
