Bat House Building Workshop

Our bat house building workshop is created for small groups. There is a minimum purchase of ten (10) DIY bat house kits per workshop. The workshop generally consists of a presentation about bats, why we need to create a habitat for them, and information on finishing and placement of a bat house. After the presentation, the participants are guided through the building of the bat house kit. Workshops can take up to two (2) hours, depending on age of participants and size of group. Up to three (3) workshops can be conducted in one day at the same location. All tools and supplies to build a bat house kit (except paint to finish) are provided. We also provide written instructions on finishing and placement for each bat house.

We request the host location provide tables, table coverings and access to electricity to charge tool batteries (if needed). It is also suggested that there be one (1) chaperone/assistant for each five (5) participants, if participants are 15 years old or younger.

Costs:

Each kit workshop is $450, which includes ten (10) DIY bat house kits and supplies necessary to build the kits.  Additional kits can be purchased at $45 each.  See the description of the kit on our estore at:  https://estore.habitatforbats.org/bat-house-kit-one-chamber-bci-certified/ or click here
