can I mount this to a tree?

You can mount this to a tree and may find that bats respond better to it on one side of the tree but not the other. A high area is preferable to bats

Yes. There is a hinged loop on the back of the bat house very similar to the back of a picture frame. This can be used for hanging on a tree just as it would for a wooden post.

There's no physical reason that you cannot. But, you'll find that bats may be less likely to take up residence in a tree. They tend to like clear, calm access to the entrance...

You could mount to a tree trunk, but be certain it receives sufficient SUN* Also, it comes w/ only a top hook, so secure the bottom also so it won't tilt sideways. *http://www.batmanagement.com/Batcentral/boxinstall/install1.html

I believe you can mount it to a tree. It comes with very comprehensive instructions from what I remember. Very well made.

It could hang from a tree just fine. I have it hanging from a hook on our gazebo. It does need to be level, though.

Yes, you just need a stand to hold one end. I mounted a shelf bracket to a tree and it works great .

Well, it's a four screw flat mount, so the tree would have to be fairly flat for it to work, but I guess if you used long enough screws it could work. Or you could fashion some sort of inversely curved adapter, but no, not out of the box unless the tree is flat enough. Thanks for reminding me, I need to make an update on this. You need to grease the thing from time to time, the elements make it such that small squirrels can use it. I put some corn oil on it from time to time. Thinking about it, that would be a real problem with a pine tree, the sap would tend to make the thing sticky..........

Yes to the outdoors, the mount swings from horizontal as pictured to vertical so it could be screwed to a post, side of a house, etc. or just mount it to a board and set it on something tall.very versitile.

Yes, wasn't real hard to do. I hung it on a chain that was already in place in my tree. But there are instructions for hanging from included hook.

yes you can you just have to have the insulators to hammer into the tree if it was me I would get the circular corner insulators and wrap it around the back of the tree so that you don't have to actually put a nail in the tree

Nope. Sorry. No way to mount it. Plus, it's awfully thick for that....if that makes sense.

I'd imagine you could but I'd recommend having longer screws so it could secure into the truck of the tree. With the bark barrier it would have to cross, the screws included would not secure the bracket very well.

I actually hung it on a tree and you could hang it on a branch as well but it'd have to be a bigger branch or the house will sway too much in wind.

Sorry, but I think it isn't ideal for mounting, it's made to hang (from a tree branch, hook, etc), but the company may have suggestions for you. Their customer service is excellent, and they offer a one year guarantee for their products. It's a great feeder, though.

yes you can, and yes... youll need something to attach this fixture. depending on where youll hang it you can use from cable ties to even masking tape... the best for you would be to buy C-clamps and screw them up to the fixture's bracket. with these youll be able to move the fixture sideways and up and down as you please... if you tie the light's bracket down directly on the tree youll only get 1 of the axis to work for you... get the clamps...

you might could set it on a branch but you would have to find a way to attach it- the "wind action" doesn't really work

Yes. I don't see any reason you couldn't. Mounting it will be the hardest part.

It will not mount on a post un.ess you have some kind of hanging bracket that would screw o the post. It is designed with a metal hook on top that you hang from a tree or another hanger.

you an stick a pole underneath the base or some how secure it in a tree from base, yes, it won't hang from a treebecause the head is attached only by a loose spring to make it wobble in the wind. Trick is to attach it to a wooden dowelor some sort from underneath (like a coin bank with stopper kind of set up, maybe a round hole about 2 inches in diameter).

The post has two pieces, the one stake to put in ground, but if you take stake off, i'm sure it could be mounted on roof some how. Actually that's a great idea for if you wanted to use these as Christmas lights. I have them around a small palm tree and they are bright and beautiful and stay on for 4-6 hours.
