Heated Bat Roost Box

About this product

The Heated Bat Roost Box is an easy to install, heated bat box. The box requires no wiring and is ready to plug directly into the mains. The temperature is controlled with an external thermostat, designed to go inside the building and connected to the bat box by a 10 metre cable. The bat box is made from FSC certified exterior grade plywood, with ceramic inserts and a ceramic heating element. The warm interior makes this box perfect for large colonies or as a maternity unit for small crevice-dwelling bats such as common pipistrelles, soprano pipistrelles and barbastelle bats. The three internal crevices provide the bats with a range of temperature zones to choose from. The Heated Bat Roost Box is particularly valuable for replacing roosts close to artificial heat sources, such as heating pipes.

* Draught-proofing enhances temperature stability inside the box.
