Bats are amazing helpers. Each and every night, they consume thousands of mosquitoes. Construction of a bat house implies that you save your family without chemicals and sprays. It is among the finest methods to have an idyllic small garden and do good to the environment.
Our bat houses are constructed out of hard cedar wood, extending their lifetime up to many years. The wood also maintains the interior cool and cozy for bats. You can find single, double, and triple bat houses in our collection, so there is one for every yard size. Each design has grooves inside for easy landing, a tight fit for warmth, and vents for fresh air.
Choosing the right bat house depends on your climate and space. A 1 chamber bat house is great for beginners or cooler areas. A 2 chamber bat house offers more space and better temperature control for warm regions. And a three chamber bat barn can host larger colonies and provide extra comfort in hot states.
Each bat house also helps in natural garden pest solution. You will lower the use of insect sprays and yet have a peaceful backyard. Our models are certified bat houses, which are safe in their design and where the wood is of good quality.
To attract bats faster, follow our bat house placement guide. Install it in a high place in the sun and close to a water source, where possible. And in no long time, you shall witness these beautiful creatures flying about at dusk, to keep your garden on track and to breathe life into it.

"Bat Conservation International stresses correct placement is the #1 success factor.
We always recommend mounting bat boxes where they’ll get at least six hours of sun."

Size affects both capacity and climate control. A 2-chamber bat house can host around 50–75 bats and suits smaller yards or bachelor colonies. Larger 3- or 4-chamber bat houses can hold several hundred bats, including maternity groups, and they retain heat more evenly—important in regions with wide temperature swings.
Too small can limit success, but too big is rarely a problem. If you have space and sun exposure, choosing a larger house gives you the best long-term results.
The best bat house color depends on your local climate. Darker colors, like black or dark brown, absorb more heat and work well in cooler regions with mild summers. Medium shades, such as natural wood or mid-tone brown, suit temperate areas. Light colors, like cedar or tan, reflect sunlight and are best in hot climates where summers regularly exceed 95°F (35°C). The goal is to keep the bat house interior within the preferred range of 80–104°F (27–40°C).
For example in the US:
If you’re unsure, it’s usually better to go a bit darker, especially in areas with cooler nights.
The capacity depends on size and placement. A 2-chamber bat house may host 50–75 bats, while larger 3- or 4-chamber houses can support several hundred, including maternity colonies.
Since bats cluster for warmth, providing enough roosting space helps them thrive. If you’re unsure which size to pick, it’s generally better to go larger—too big is rarely a problem, while a box that’s too small can limit colony growth and reduce long-term success.
Some bat houses attract residents within a few weeks, but on average it takes 2–6 months. Larger houses can take up to two years to host a colony.
Location is key: place the box near water, in an open, sunny area, and at the correct height (15–20 feet / 4.5–6 meters). Bigger houses often fill more quickly once discovered, since they offer multiple roosting options. If in doubt, choosing a larger model improves your chances of attracting and retaining bats.
Yes—bats are highly effective insect predators. A single bat eats thousands of mosquitoes and crop pests each night, making them natural, chemical-free pest control. Unlike insecticides, which can harm pollinators and other wildlife, bats target insects while supporting biodiversity.
Installing a bat box reduces pests and helps conserve bat populations, many of which are at risk from habitat loss. Larger bat houses also encourage bigger colonies, which means more effective pest control for your property.
