As these houses are constructed of Western Red Cedar, they weather beautifully and will darken as they are exposed to the elements over time. The 3/4" chambers will deter wasps, hornets, etc. from making a home in your bat house; however, they may try to make a home in the area just below the chamber on the landing pad. Inspect your house several times a week, or until the bats move in, since bats will not move in if the house is already occupied. Once the bats have moved in, other insects will avoid the area completely as they don't want to be eaten. January/February is the best time to inspect your house for winter wear. Reseal any gaps that may have formed due to the expansive features of cedar. Clear any branches that have grown around the house that may pose entrance or exit path hindrance.
