Description

Our 3-Chamber Cedar Bat House is handcrafted in Niagara, Ontario and designed to provide bats with a durable, comfortable roosting space. It combines Canadian cedar with fir and spruce plywood, multiple roosting chambers, textured interior surfaces and side ventilation for long-term outdoor use.

CWF Reviewed Design

Our 3-chamber bat house has been reviewed by members of the Canadian Wildlife Federation as part of its work studying bat house design in Canada.

The Canadian Wildlife Federation’s Canadian Bat Box Project examined the design features and installation conditions that help make bat houses more suitable for Canadian bats. Our design incorporates key features identified in their recommendations, including multiple chambers, ventilation, textured interior surfaces and generous overall dimensions.

Installation

 

When installing your bat box, do your best to stick to several or all of the following guidelines:

  • Height is important. Install the bat box a minimum of 12 feet off the ground.
  • Bats like a warm climate. Make sure the box will get some sun.
    • NOTE: If you worry that your bat box will not get enough sun, paint it with non-toxic black paint so that the sun it does get is more easily absorbed. Do not paint the inside of the house.
  • Install by water. Bats will find the box more easily if there is a water source nearby.
  • Trees are an alright option, but if you can, attach your box to the side of a house or pole instead.
  • Provide open space. Consider a nice open area facing south or southeast to keep bats protected and cozy.
