<b>Create a home for one of nature’s only remaining flying mammals!</b> You may be concerned with the severe decline in bat population, or simply want to provide a safe and secure home for these furry flyers. Installing a bat house on your property will create a safe and lasting habitat for the little night time aerial acrobats.<br><br><b>We proudly hand craft each shelter in our tiny woodworking shop in the Upper Midwest.</b> Some lower priced, imported bat shelters on the market are often constructed with a thin cut lumber known as chinese cedar. <b>We use thick (3/4-7/8 inch) quality grade cedar.</b> Your Western Red Cedar shelter is naturally weather resistant, ensuring years of use in harsh outdoor environments. Narrow interior dimensions provide a cozy environment conducive to heat retention. Each bat house arrives at your door <b>ready to install</b>, there are pre-drilled mounting holes in the lower section, and a steel hanger installed on the back. We include 3- 2 ½ inch exterior grade deck screws and instructions for mounting on your house, a tree, or a free-standing pole.<br><br><b><i>And finally, we’d like to thank you for supporting our small business and US manufacturing! We believe you’ll be thoroughly satisfied with your purchase.</b></i>
