Why Do You Need a House for Wanderers of the Night?
Bats are fascinating creatures that roam the night skies, found on every continent except Antarctica, and play a crucial role in the health and biodiversity of ecosystems ranging from rainforests to deserts. As human interference and encroachment on their natural habitats increase, bats have been displaced and forced to seek new homes, often wandering into urban and suburban areas. It has become our responsibility to provide a safe and nurturing environment for these remarkable creatures of the earth.
The Outer Trails Cedar Wood Bat House is designed to address the needs of these night-roaming bats. Available in two- and three-chamber variations, the houses offer ample space for up to 60 and 90-100 bats, respectively, to roost comfortably. The narrow interior dimensions and grooved interiors create a cozy and secure environment, promoting heat retention and a homely atmosphere for the bats.
The bat house is crafted with weather-resistant materials, including cedar wood and weatherproof varnish, allowing it to withstand the elements, from snow and rain to extreme heat and cold. This ensures the longevity of the structure, as cedar is naturally resistant to rot and decay.
Installation of the Outer Trails Bat House is a breeze. The pre-assembled unit comes with a sturdy hook on the back, making it easy to secure to trees, poles, or the side of a house. By providing a secure habitat for bats, this eco-friendly solution benefits both the bats and the surrounding environment.
Bats are natural predators against mosquitoes, with a single, average-sized bat capable of consuming over 1,000 mosquitoes in an hour. By attracting bats to your area, you can look forward to a mosquito-free garden and yard, providing relief from these pesky insects.
Furthermore, bat guano is renowned for its exceptional qualities as a natural fertilizer. By providing a roosting space for bats, you can expect healthier soil and a greener, more vibrant lawn.
To ensure the bats' natural instincts are catered to, it is recommended to install the bat house at a good height off the ground, away from potential predators. Bats naturally seek out new roosting sites every night, and the spacious, grooved interiors of the Outer Trails Bat House will make it an inviting and comfortable home for a full colony.
Whether you live in a cooler climate, an area with average July temperatures between 85°F and 95°F, or a hot climate region, the Outer Trails Bat House has an option tailored to your local conditions, as indicated on the included map.
In conclusion, the Outer Trails Cedar Wood Bat House offers an eco-friendly and practical solution to provide a safe haven for the wandering bats of the night, benefiting both the bats and the surrounding ecosystem. By installing this weatherproof, easy-to-use bat house, you can contribute to the conservation of these remarkable creatures and enjoy the natural mosquito control and fertilization benefits they provide.
