    Pros and cons

    Siting

    Firstly, site high up between 2.5m and 5m on a building or mature tree using the pre-drilled back plate hanger. Secondly, to achieve the ideal aspect, the box receives only part sun during the day, facing South West or South East. If it is on an existing feeding or flight route, you are more likely to get the occupation.

    Bats are a schedule 1 protected species under the Wildlife & Countryside Act. It is illegal for any member of the public to disturb a roost, handle or kill any bat. Therefore, only licensed bat workers can inspect Bat Boxes. However, you can monitor your bat box without disturbance, look for mouse-sized droppings beneath the box as a clue to occupation or observe from a distance at dusk to see if bats are exiting the box to hunt.
