Bat Haven
The Bat Haven is a smaller, three chambered bat nesting house. This house is made of rough sawn cedar using wide thread screws for stability, with grooves along the base and interior walls to provide easy gripping by the bats for landing access and their customary hanging while resting. It has an opening of the recommended 1.75” at the bottom to limit access to only the bats and provide some ventilation for comfort. This house has an extended back panel to allow drilling holes to mount directly on a pole or building. The height should be at least 10’ to 12’ off the ground and allow for a clear flight path to and from the nesting house. It is recommended that these are not attached to trees as that provides easy access to predators like snakes or raccoons. The dimensions of the haven are 9”h x 8”w x 6”d. Weight 8.5 lbs.

About our product line
We make every effort to ensure that all of our wildlife nesting boxes or feeders are made with materials that meet the recommendations of naturalists for the well-being of the animals. Our wood products are made of raw white pine treated with natural linseed oil for moisture resistance and luster, or natural rough cut cedar. Their construction features glued joints along the roof line and metal screws for long term stability. Most of these boxes can be post or pole mounted following recommended installation guidelines supported by most naturalists for the bees’, birds’, bats’, ducks’ and butterflies’ safety. An improperly mounted box can put the animals at risk to predators. The roofs on the pine houses are painted with neutral color of water based exterior latex paint (two coats plus a latex primer underneath). We avoid bright colors which may look nice but can attract many predators.
