This bat box consists of two compartments and is used for temporary mitigation. Installation is preferably on facades, but the box may also be suitable for installation in trees.
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.
This box is finished in black to allow the temperature inside to warm up quickly when placed in a shady, cooler location. The two compartments create different microclimates within the box. The bat box is also available in white (VK MP 08). The white finish has the advantage of heating up less quickly when installed in sunny, warm places.
The box is made of waterproof bonded exterior plywood. The inside of the back wall and one side of the partition is finished with spray cork for good grip. The box comes with dowels and screws for mounting.
As a summer or breeding box, it is suitable for:
- Whiskered Bat
- Common Pipistrelle
- Brown Long-eared Bat (in loft applications)
- Soprano Pipistrelle
- Nathusius’ Pipistrelle
In mild winters, it may also be used by:
- Common Pipistrelle
