The Schwegler Universal Bat Box 1FFH is the culmination of Schwegler's extensive research into bat boxes. The 1FFH bat box has numerous innovations and many tried and tested features;

* hollows and crevices where animals can retreat.
* high inside ceiling ensures a favourable microclimate.
* crevices and hollows permit a wide range of species to roost.
* forestry approved mounting.
* maintenance free, self-cleaning.
* durable, safe and weather-resistant.

The Schwegler 1FFH bat box is suitable for most bat species, and provides a suitable Summer roost site from Spring to late Autumn. The rear compartment is perfectly designed for larger species and is sufficiently large for female colonies and their young, as well as groups of common noctules.

Species inhabiting crevices, such as the Natterer's bat, can use the small cavities of the forward compartment as a safe daytime sleeping area. The narrow entrance hole provides sleeping bats with extra protection against predators and disturbances.

The Schwegler Universal 1FFH bat box is also self-cleaning and maintenance free. Both daytime sleeping areas feature clinging surfaces made of untreated wood and Schwegler Wood-concrete. The grooved design makes it possible for even younger, less adept animals to cling safely to the walls. Individuals can choose a sleeping area which offers them the best possible ambient climate whenever the weather changes.

The Schwegler Universal Bat Box 1FFH can be installed on trees, masts, towers and flat surfaces. 4 supports built into the semi-circular rear surface ensure the box is stable in windy weather. The 1FFH is best installed at 3 to 5 metres above the ground. Ensure a clear flight path to the 1FFH to encourage bats to inhabit it.
