Bat House Forum

[Jthebooknerd87]

Hello- I have had two bat boxes come into my possestion with the thought that I will install them in a local park. The problem? How do you mount or install them? I guess I am asking for some construction advice. I have a 25' pole and two bat boxes, I understand where they should be put and which direction to face but attaching the durn things TO the pole is evading me. Any advice?

What kind of pole? Is it metal or wood? There are many different ways.........I like french cleats to initially mount the box nice and level........If you look through the posts with pictures you will get a lot of different ideas on how to mount a box........
