Bastet Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Does anyone know of anywhere near Melle/St Maixent/Niort which sell bat roosting boxes? I know they're probably not too difficult to make but I don't know one end of a hammer from the other & my OH is too busy. Or a french online supplier? We already have bats somewhere close by (they've moved from behind the shutters, thankfully) and I'd like to help them more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Stick this on "working with wood" and you never know Chris might make some for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini_man Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 funny you should say that - we have loads of bats and "behind the shutters" is one of their favourite roosting places :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris pp Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Try getting in touch with these people, http://www.dsne.org/ I know them fairly well and they have a bat specialist who will point you in the right direction.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastet Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 Thanks, will do. Do you happen to know what they're called in French; boîtes des chauves-souris, boîtes aux chauves-souris? There was mention of 'gîtes' on the website; is that the correct term? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris pp Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Not sure, but she (and the others) will understand BATBOX, it's the name of a rather well known bat detector, just be clear that you want the box not the piece of equipment.[;-)]Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
