Install a Bat Box

Don’t forget, mammals aren’t just our four legged friends on the ground – they can fly too!

While we see many bird boxes at schools, it is much rarer to see a bat box. Why not try one?

They can be bought at gardens centres but if you have any crafty staff or parents you could try make one yourself. For technical instructions on how to build one click here.
