Make a place for bats Worldwide, 77 species of bats are endangered and in many countries (including the US) loss of habitat means all local bats are at risk. Installing a bat box is a great way to support these beautiful animals – and also cut down on the number of mosquitoes and flies in your area! The Kenley Bat Box is designed to host a small bat colony. It's hand crafted from premium cedar wood and varnished to make it weatherproof. It can be additionally painted or sprayed to change the color. Where to install your bat house The Kenley Bats House comes with a mounting hook at the back and information about bat preferences. Bats fly to their roosts, so the house should be at least 12 feet above the ground. Choose a spot that's sheltered from the wind yet gets direct sunlight for 4 or more hours a day. Please bear in mind that installing a bat house does not mean you'll see bats. Bats are wild animals and it may take several months for local bats to discover your bat house. Never disturb roosting bats.
