Q: Will just hanging this attract bats?
2 months ago1 Answer
- A: Hi Neighbor! According to Google; Simply hanging the S&K Cedar 50-Bat House does not guarantee attracting bats, as proper placement is critical for success. To increase chances, mount it 12–20 feet high on a pole or building (not trees) in full sun (6+ hours).2 months agoHelpful?

Q: Where/How do i mount this? On a post,in a tree?
a year ago1 Answer
- A: Bat houses should face south or southeast to get 6–8 hours of direct sunlight each day. However, some say that trees can block sunlight, making it difficult for bat houses to get the right amount of sun. Bat houses should be placed in open areas that are free of obstructions within a 20-foot radius. They should also be at least 12 feet off the ground and 20–30 feet from tree branches. If possible, you can choose a location near a water source like a stream, river, pond, or lake. These areas are natural bat flyways and provide a nearby feeding zone for bats on hot daya year agoHelpful?
Q: How can I attract bats to house? Is there something I can use?
3 years ago1 Answer
- A: Fragrant flowers, herbs, and night-blooming plants attract nocturnal insects, which, in turn, lure bats. The more insects, the better. Try planting dahlia, French marigold, nicotiana, evening primrose, thyme, raspberry, or honeysuckle.3 years agoHelpful?
Q: A purchased two of the s&k cedar 50-bat houses. How far apart do they need to be from the other? Do I need to put a finish on them to protect them from weather before hanging them?
3 years ago1 Answer
- A: The manufacturer has not specified a distance, typically there is no set rule on how many you can place per acre. The houses come fully assembled, adding a finish would be per preference and not necessarily needed or required to house the bats.3 years agoHelpful?

Cute bat house
7 years ago
I ordered this bat house because it is not too big not too small. It also has spooky looking trees on the front which makes it cute in my opinion . We mounted it at the top of a wooden 4 x 4 I think. I’ve heard it can take a couple years for bats to move in but I am hoping they like the location! We NEED bats because mosquitoes LOVE our backyard. :)

Good for the money
7 years ago
This is a cute house and nice for the low cost. However, the biggest flaw I found after it arrived was that it doesn't open to be cleaned. A lot of the other houses I looked at specifically said that the tops opened for easy cleaning. This one didn't specify if it did or didn't and I assumed it would. Also, the hole that is drilled into the back is impossible to get to with a drill or hammer. So hanging it was another problem. I had to add brackets to each side and then drill into the house. The house is also much smaller than I expected, but I'm not really sure how close bats like to sleep so I'm not sure if that will be a problem or not.
Still not a bad product for the very low price compared to the certified bat houses that are offered through "Bat Conservation International". I would say this is a very novice house and if you're really looking to add bats to your property, I would go with a better quality house from a certified dealer.

It is cheapeer than building your own but thats it
27 days ago
It is cedar. It is an entirely 'stapled' assembly. The top is not removable and even if you wanted to, it can not be 'pulled' off without damage from the stapled assembly. Having screws would have allowed you access the inside BUT also possibly allow for easier mounting. I bought THREE and NONE had "pre-drilled mounting holes" at all. Probably for the better. However, it is DEFINITELY cheaper and easier than making your own.
