Info about the Bat boxes
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.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
- 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.
- Mount at least 15 feet high on a south or southeast-facing wall or pole.
-
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.

Customer Reviews
I can't yet speak to how well this actually attracts bats, because after purchasing, I realized for my living situation, I'll need to build/buy a stand or pole for my box HOWEVER, the box came in excellent condition, looks great, and the dedication to the health of the bats and the humans using these boxes is obvious. A lot of care went into the product, and it shows in the quality.
Thanks for the kind words, Will! Glad to hear the box arrived in great shape. You're right—pole or wall mounting works best since trees can be too shady and leave bats exposed to predators. A simple 15-foot pole in a sunny, open spot will give you the best shot at attracting residents. Give it time—bats are picky, but once they move in, they stick around.
These bat houses look well-made, but please review the installation instructions. The step-by-step guides are not very clear, especially for someone who is not very hardware store savvy. I ended up going back several times (sheet metal for the roof is not included under the items needed and there is no guidance for how to affix it). I emailed several questions and Wildyard responded to about half. You will not get as many questions if your instructions are complete and clear. Maybe make a video?
It’s taking me three years to finally get around to putting up the bathhouse I bought from you for my wife. So I was very disappointed when I looked inside to figure out how to mount it on the pole that I bought specifically for bat houses. That’s when I discovered one of the screws went in shallow and splintered one of the slats inside.
Other than that, it looks nice. I just hope this amount is the right one!
Great, solid bat house
We bought 2 double black chamber bat house and are very satisfied with our purchase. The quality is obvious and they are good looking on our house. This company that, we have just discovered, seems to be ethical and invested in bats' ecosystem and wellbeing.
