One Chamber

One-chamber bat houses are a popular choice for smaller gardens and yards. If you have limited space, a one-chamber bat house is a great choice because it won't take up too much room. However, if you have a larger property, you may want to consider a 2-chamber or 3-chamber bat house, which can provide more space for bats to roost.

Two Chamber

One of the main advantages of a two-chamber bat house is that it can accommodate more bats than a one-chamber bat house, making it a great option for larger properties or those looking to attract more bats. The additional space also provides a more comfortable environment for bats to roost and raise their young.

Shop Two Chamber

Three Chamber

Three-chamber bat houses offer several key advantages over one- and two-chamber designs. They provide more space for larger colonies, support better temperature regulation throughout the year, and encourage social bonding among bats, which can enhance pest control. Built from durable, high-quality materials, these bat houses are a long-lasting and practical choice for any bat enthusiast.

- Mount at least 15 feet high on a south or southeast-facing wall or pole.
  Building walls are best, especially in colder or dry areas. If using a pole, consider two boxes back to back for better temperature control.
- Choose a sunny spot that stays between 80–104°F. Ideal areas: near water sources or where bats have roosted before.
- Avoid shaded areas or monoculture farms.
It’s possible but not recommended. Trees are usually too shady and expose bats to predators. If no wall or pole is available, use the sunniest, most open tree and mount the box at least 20 feet away from branches.
Bats can move in quickly, sometimes within a few days if the area is right. On average, it takes 2 to 6 months, but in some cases it may take up to a year or more. If bats already live nearby or others in your area have had success, your chances are better. There’s no need to add anything to attract them, just be patient. With the right setup, they’ll find the bat box on their own.

Well made and bat safe

I have not set it up or used it yet, but it looks and feels amazing. I bought from Big Bat Box because of research that I did which revealed to me the dangers that mesh wiring or netting, commonly found in other bat boxes, can cause to bats. Big Bat Box, in comparison, uses scored wood for the bats to hold on to. From the research that I did, this is the safest option for the bats, as they commonly get caught in wiring or netting. The box is well made and I'm very excited to use it.

Looks great and can hardly wait to put it up. Which brings up a recommendation to provide location(s) that is most conducive for mounting this bat box for bats to find, height, facing direction, and effective use.

Hi Ronald,

Thank you for your positive review of our Single Chamber Bat House! We are so glad that you like the design and are excited to put it up. For best results, mount the bat box at least 15 feet high on a south or southeast-facing wall or pole—full sun is key to keeping it warm. Avoid trees if possible, as they create too much shade and invite predators. If you’re near a water source or have seen bat activity before, that’s an added bonus. Let us know if you need help picking a spot—we’re happy to guide you.
