The causa bat box is part of our vivara pro range, and is an extra large bat roost box that has 4 chambers to encourage breeding. There are seventeen species of bat in the uk and ireland, six of which are known to use bat boxes, and they often live in close proximity to humans, using gardens as an important source of food, water and shelter. However, populations have declined significantly during the past century as many natural roosting and feeding sites have been destroyed. You can help to support these small, intriguing creatures by providing a roosting site. Because they need different roosting conditions at different times of the year, bats will often move around on a regular basis to suit their needs. For best results, site your bat box in a sturdy tree or building where bats have been seen or are known to feed. As high as possible at least 2 5m, with a clear aposflight pathapos for access. In a sheltered area, ideally south or southwest facing to ensure a few hours of sun.
