Multiple roosts provide bats with parasite and predator avoidance options. Multiple smaller bat roosts allow bat families to break up and segregate as they see fit. If one structure is vandalized or collapses over time, the whole colony will not suddenly be at risk, but will occupy the other nearby structures until repairs made. Multiple smaller roosts can be placed in slightly different areas in a wildlife management area, with different color configurations, and the bats are more likely to find one the suits them. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat about costs and installation hassle?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Modular Condo is easier to install and is less costly than competing designs with similar capacity.\u003ci\u003e It is possible to install multiple Modular Condos for the same cost as just one \"bat condo\"-class structure. \u003c\/i\u003eIn addition, our modular design breaks down into boxes that can be shipped UPS, and installed without heavy equipment if necessary.

Multiple smaller roosts can be placed in slightly different areas in a wildlife management area, with different color configurations, and the bats are more likely to find one the suits them. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhat about costs and installation hassle?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Modular Condo is easier to install and is less costly than competing designs with similar capacity.\u003ci\u003e It is possible to install multiple Modular Condos for the same cost as just one \"bat condo\"-class structure. \u003c\/i\u003eIn addition, our modular design breaks down into boxes that can be shipped UPS, and installed without heavy equipment if necessary.

Our Rocket Core mimics a dead tree with both \"wedge\" roost crevices and more traditional vertical baffles. This is a great choice in forest environments suitable for small colonies of a wide range of species. A 1\/8'' thick heavy-duty custom outdoor UV-resistant plastic shell protects the roost for a no maintenance roost\u003cstrong\u003e. \u003c\/strong\u003e The larger mass of the Super Rocket Roost retains heat longer into the night and provides more roost crevices for more bats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BCM Rocket Roost is intended to be added to an existing 4''x6''x16' treated post. Bats may land on, but never roost against the treated post. F\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eor warm climates consider installing in part (afternoon) or full shade. As with all bat houses, multiple location or roost designs can increase the chances of occupancy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to \"White Nose Syndrome\" that has killed millions of bats in North America, the landscape of the bat population has changed. Rocket Roosts tend to attract small families of bats but of a wider range of species, whereas larger nursery bat houses tend to attract a large number of just a few species. Some bats prefer small roosts which end up being less obvious to predators and less prone to parasite overload. So, one bat roost does not fit all, and BCM Rocket Roosts are a great complement to nursery style bat houses especially on forest edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRocket boxes are highly successful and perform better than many other designs. \u003cstrong\u003eOur 4'' test units had big brown bats occupy in less than 10 days at one site, while at another location little brown bats were recorded the first time it was surveyed 45 days after installation.\u003c\/strong\u003e At one location, \u003cstrong\u003eour Super Rocket Roost had little brown bats occupying in approximately one month.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rocket Roosts are great\u003cspan\u003e for large mitigation projects were a number of long-term replacement roosts are necessary, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ewhile being far more cost effective than other solutions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e (1) 8'' diameter, 56'' tall Super Rocket Roost with heavy-duty plastic exterior and associated hardware.

Our Rocket Core mimics a dead tree with both \"wedge\" roost crevices and more traditional vertical baffles. This is a great choice in forest environments suitable for small colonies of a wide range of species. A 1\/8'' thick heavy-duty custom outdoor UV-resistant plastic shell protects the roost for a no maintenance roost\u003cstrong\u003e. \u003c\/strong\u003e The larger mass of the Super Rocket Roost retains heat longer into the night and provides more roost crevices for more bats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BCM Rocket Roost is intended to be added to an existing 4''x6''x16' treated post.

As with all bat houses, multiple location or roost designs can increase the chances of occupancy. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to \"White Nose Syndrome\" that has killed millions of bats in North America, the landscape of the bat population has changed. Rocket Roosts tend to attract small families of bats but of a wider range of species, whereas larger nursery bat houses tend to attract a large number of just a few species. Some bats prefer small roosts which end up being less obvious to predators and less prone to parasite overload. So, one bat roost does not fit all, and BCM Rocket Roosts are a great complement to nursery style bat houses especially on forest edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRocket boxes are highly successful and perform better than many other designs. \u003cstrong\u003eOur 4'' test units had big brown bats occupy in less than 10 days at one site, while at another location little brown bats were recorded the first time it was surveyed 45 days after installation.\u003c\/strong\u003e At one location, \u003cstrong\u003eour Super Rocket Roost had little brown bats occupying in approximately one month.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rocket Roosts are great\u003cspan\u003e for large mitigation projects were a number of long-term replacement roosts are necessary, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ewhile being far more cost effective than other solutions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e (1) 8'' diameter, 56'' tall Super Rocket Roost with heavy-duty plastic exterior and associated hardware.

Over the years we have modified the design and it is now evolved into a scaled down version of the highly successful, sturdy Bat Condo. Previously land managers on a budget but with a significant bat challenge could only install multiple houses to provide enough alternate habitat.

At 4' square and approximately 6' high at the peak, approximately 68 roost baffles create the core of the roost. Roof crevices create a \"triple layer roof\" where bats may roost against the inside of the roof-- perhaps the most valuable crevices available. The \"floor\" of the Mini Condo is a closed bottom that provides some protection for downed pups. The inside of the doors is coated with fiberglass for longevity and ease of guano dumping. The best bat entrances of the full size condo are preserved here, the entire sides of the Mini Condo form a gigantic landing plate for bats to land and enter under the eves. As with our smaller house designs, the bottom third of the Mini Condo is vented to assure a temperature gradient.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style221\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/127329347\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"\" mozallowfullscreen=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style221\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style88\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBecause a Mini Condo uses stand off bases so the posts do not directly contact the ground, on the first visit we will help you site the bat house and then install the foundation. A few days must pass for the foundation to set. If the installation site is accessible by truck, we will install a mostly assembled Mini Condo using a crane. We usually build the Mini Condo in one or two major sections at our shop, then finish assembly onsite, adding baffles, siding, and trim before finally painting.

For most folks five or ten separate bat houses on individual posts throughout the property is unrealistic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style221\"\u003eWe took the full size idea, scaled it down, and improved upon it. At 4' square and approximately 6' high at the peak, approximately 68 roost baffles create the core of the roost. Roof crevices create a \"triple layer roof\" where bats may roost against the inside of the roof-- perhaps the most valuable crevices available. The \"floor\" of the Mini Condo is a closed bottom that provides some protection for downed pups. The inside of the doors is coated with fiberglass for longevity and ease of guano dumping. The best bat entrances of the full size condo are preserved here, the entire sides of the Mini Condo form a gigantic landing plate for bats to land and enter under the eves. As with our smaller house designs, the bottom third of the Mini Condo is vented to assure a temperature gradient.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style221\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/127329347\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"\" mozallowfullscreen=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style221\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"style88\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBecause a Mini Condo uses stand off bases so the posts do not directly contact the ground, on the first visit we will help you site the bat house and then install the foundation. A few days must pass for the foundation to set. If the installation site is accessible by truck, we will install a mostly assembled Mini Condo using a crane. We usually build the Mini Condo in one or two major sections at our shop, then finish assembly onsite, adding baffles, siding, and trim before finally painting.

This is a great choice suitable for small colonies of a wide range of species, on it's own or supplementing other bat house designs on your property.

Rocket Roosts tend to attract small families of bats but of a wider range of species, whereas larger nursery bat houses tend to attract a large number of just a few species. Some bats prefer small roosts which end up being less obvious to predators and less prone to parasite overload. So, one bat roost does not fit all, and BCM Rocket Roosts are a great complement to nursery style bat houses especially on forest edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRocket Roosts are great\u003cspan\u003e for large mitigation projects were a number of long-term replacement roosts are necessary, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ewhile being far more cost effective than other solutions.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e (1) 8'' diameter, 28'' tall Rocket Roost with heavy-duty plastic exterior and associated hardware.
