Our new bat box collection has arrived! Dreamwood Dabbler designs have introduced an all natural and untreated wood line of bat homes, designed specifically for the night fliers in mind. Developing plans, recommended by the Bat Conservation Trust and The National Trust, we have created our own range of bat boxes aimed towards accommodating pipistrelle and daubenton bats - the smaller of the bat order.
Bat Boxes
Dimensions: 330mm x 170mm x 80mm
The exterior of our boxes have a smooth pine-wood finish, meanwhile, the interior our boxes have grooves, grip-holds, and rough-wood chambers which are ideal for a community of bats to grip onto. The 'ladder' system, below the entrance to the box, is for both aesthetics and practical use for the bats when landing and resting on the box front. The spacing of each 'rung' is that suggested by the Bat Conservation Trust.
Note: Bats have various laws in place which protect them, and their boxes, from being disturbed. Please familiarise yourself with, and follow, the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations (2017) when commiting yourself to a bat box. Thank you!
