bat

Welcome bats, your natural allies for a mosquito-free garden!

Did you know a single bat can devour up to 3,000 insects in one night? Installing a bat shelter in your garden is an eco-friendly, practical step for anyone wishing to naturally regulate mosquito and moth populations. At Jardiboutique, we offer bat boxes specially designed to give these small flying mammals a safe refuge suited to their way of life. It's a simple and rewarding way to help protect wildlife while enjoying a more peaceful outdoor space.

Discover our sturdy shelter models, made from natural, durable materials. Unlike bird boxes, these roosts feature a narrow slit at the bottom and a rough inner wall so bats can grip easily. Easy to fix to a wall or tree, our boxes require no particular maintenance and blend discreetly into your landscape. With Jardiboutique, do something for nature and turn your garden into a balanced ecosystem.

Jardiboutique's expert tip: Location is the secret to seeing your box occupied. Installation tip: Fix your shelter at a minimum height of 3 to 4 metres from the ground, in a clear spot to make take-off easier. Exposure: Bats like warmth; a South or South-East facing spot is ideal so they can warm up during the day. Patience: It can sometimes take several months for a colony to spot and adopt its new home. Avoid installing the shelter near a strong light source (a streetlamp), as this disrupts their nocturnal cycle.
