There are several excellent
reasons to install bat houses on your property.
Many local bat populations are in danger or are already displaced due to
habitat destruction and alteration by humans, so providing artificial roosts to
replace lost habitat is a primary reason to install a bat house. Bat houses can have success even in suburban
and urban areas. If you have ever seen
bats flying around your neighborhood, a bat house will probably help. Encouraging bats to live in bat houses near
your home, farm, or orchard may provide some reduction in insect pests. Besides all that, installing a bat house and
observing the occupants is an exciting and fun activity for the whole family.

Hey
Scott! I don’t know which bat house
model to get. Help! I highly recommend that you get the largest bat house
model you can afford and not just because it costs more. Research by Bat Conservation International
has shown that larger the bat house is the greater success it has at being a
good home for bats. Also multiple bat
houses are even more attractive than a single bat house. All of the models I have above are designed and built using
the latest research and are large enough to be effective homes for many species
of bats in a variety of climates. In
most areas north of about 40o N and Canada research shows that bat houses should be painted black or a
dark color to maximize solar heating, so you should consider doing that to your
house when it arrives (If it isn't black already).
Hey
Scott! Why don’t you make your own bat
houses anymore? I used to custom make every
bat house after you order it. This meant
you might have to wait several weeks or months for me to get it to you. This can be discouraging to the anxious bat
house enthusiast, so I’ve lined up some great people who can do it faster (and
perhaps even better) than I could. I
still pride myself in fast friendly personal advice before and after you buy a
bat house through me.
Disclaimer: There are many
factors that come into play when attracting bats, so I cannot guarantee that
bats will use the houses I provide.
Also, as a condition of sale, you must accept all liability associated
with the bat house, including its safe and proper installation.
Other Bat House Info:
Evicting unwanted bats – Bats in
Buildings, Evict
bats, These links should help you if you want to remove bats from a building. You shouldn’t evict bats when babies are
young. This can vary by species, but to
be safe wait until at least August or before the babies are born in early
spring. Put up alternate housing (i.e.
bat houses) a few weeks before you begin bat exclusion. I am not really a bat
removal expert so please see those webpages for more
info.

houses on poles: BHR8n2-3 and BHR5n2-4.
