The innovative design of the Batcone 2 is ideal when a square shape is better suited to the entry port of a bat colony. It is designed with a built-in solid flange with mounting holes which allows for easy and fast installation. It can also be used with flexible vinyl flange, making it effective for virtually any surface application. The Bat Cone will not harm birds or bats but can succesfully drive them from residential and commercial buildings. It will remove birds without attracting them back to the site. Suggestions for Best Results on all Cone Models For Batcone 2, bend flanges slowly back and forth to prevent flange breakage for best results. 1. At dawn or dusk, which are the best times to conduct a bat watch, observe points of entry / exit for bats in structure. 2. Incoming / outgoing bat activity will assist in determining number of cones needed for installation. For large bat colonies, use multiple cones for best results. 3. Install cones at entry points, always a downward angle for best results,it is CRITICAL to seal all other entry / exit points before installing cones strategically to prevent bats from moving to other areas of the structure. 4. It is recommended to leave cones in place for a minimum of 2 -3 days. When you are certain bats are no longer in structure, remove all remaining cones and seal all holes. A Word of Caution Please not that removing bats during their birthing cycles can result on the offspring becoming trapped inside the structure, thereby causing premature death. Please contact your state wildlife agency or state health department for information regarding bat birthing cycles in your region of the country.
