Studies show the most successful bat houses are mounted on buildings or are free-standing.
Our “Bat Tower” bat house mounts directly on a 4x4 post. The bats land on the post and climb up into the bat house in the gap between the 4x4 post and the 6-3/4" x 7" Bat Tower.
The four internal chambers and attic provide for multiple roosting opportunities. In addition, the side opens to for easy bat-viewing. (Picture shows house with door partially opened.)
A valuable and misunderstood mammal, bats are essential for a healthy environment.
Most species of North American bats dine on 3,000 – 7,000 insects nightly. Each of our bat houses is manufactured with a unique roughened surface which bats can easily cling to.
The Eastern White Pine houses are solidly constructed for warmth, insulation and durability. Our bat houses are open at the bottom so they need no cleaning and birds will not nest in them.
Measures 23" high by 6-3/4" wide by 7" deep.

Over time the wood will darken and more naturally blend in with the environment.
A bat house may be occupied immediately, but more likely it will take a year or more for the bats to move in. While pesticides are one of the causes of the decline in bat population, more important causes are human persecution and loss of roosting sites. Bats are our friends and need our help and erecting a habitat of this type is very beneficial for bats and the whole ecosystem.
Thank you for caring.
