Chavenage Bat Box
Wildlife Worlds Chavenage Bat Box, now available at Notcutts is a single chamber quality nesting box for bats. These protected mammals have lost many roosts in recent years and this natural timber Bat Box will provide a roost for a variety of species such as Pippistrelle, Noctule, Leisler's, Natterer's, Daubentons and Brown Long-eared bats. It will fit into any garden, woodland, or a house wall site.
It is made from untreated solid, high quality, durable FSC timber which provides longevity and excellent insulation. Bats are very sensitive to smell and will be deterred by any treatments applied. The box is accessed by the bats through a narrow entrance slot at the base to prevent predation.
The bat box should be sited high up between 2.5m and 5m on a building or mature tree using the pre-drilled back plate hanger. The ideal aspect is so the box receives only part sun during the day North, South West or South East. If it is on an existing feeding or flight route you are more likely to get occupation.
