Description
I am selling a BRAND NEW, unused, top-of-the-range SCHWEGLER 1FF Bat Box.
Schwegler is THE Rolls Royce make in the world of wildlife houses: robust, beautifully made, long-lasting, and designed with expert attention to the needs of the wildlife species that will use them. This house is their premier roost house for all crevice-inhabiting Bat species, and is used by leading wildlife charities and environmental groups across the UK.
The Box is made from Schwegler's classic wood-concrete mix, known as Woodcrete, and is painted black. It hangs from a single galvanised steel hanging loop, and comes with an aluminium nail, recommended by wildlife experts for use on living trees.
It measures W 27 x H 43 x D 14 cms, and weighs 9 kg.
SCHWEGLER says:
The Flat Bat Box 1FF is a crevice roost that is open at the bottom. It can be used even in extremely steep locations and it is maintenance-free, i.e. it does not have to be cleaned. Because the flat box is open at the bottom, droppings can fall out. The Flat Bat Box also has a large inspection flap that can be opened. The 1FF has been fitted with a roughed wooden back panel, made of very resistant wood, to level out temperature fluctuations in the spring and autumn. This means that the animals can use the cooler wood-concrete or the warmer wooden panel depending on their individual climatic needs.
This box has proved highly effective under practical conditions everywhere, in gardens and forests as well as on urban buildings and balconies. Thanks to the central fixing only a nail or screw is required to fix the box securely in position; an added advantage on lightweight panel walls or in rented accommodation. There is a radial recess at the rear that enables good and steady installation on masts or tree trunks. Thanks to its additional four support points it can also be attached securely to houses, garages, towers, hunting hides and walls. The vertical and horizontal narrowing of the box makes it very suitable for all crevice-inhabiting Bat species. It offers the animals optimum interior depth wherever it is hung up, i.e. back contact on and with the wood or wood-concrete on the inside.
The box is for collection only, from central Ledbury, Herefordshire. I can supply dustsheets to protect the Box during carriage.
Please note that most Wildlife sites that sell this model, are charging between £122 and £135 NET. So my price, for a brand new Box, is VERY good!
