How is it installed? Can you attach it to a tree?

We attached the bat houses to the south side of the tree using 2 flat metal braces. We placed one at the top and one at the bottom of each house. This gives them more stability.

Comes completely assembled. You must attach a piece of wood to the back of the house for further attachment to the tree/building of your choice. (The screws are provided.)

I attached it to my tree and it's real. You just have to find a spot on the trunk with enough space.

Definitely. The price includes everything in the photo, plus an S hook to hang it up.. It does not include an attachment to a tree, etc. You must provide that.It also has a pouch to store it in for the winter.

Not really. It is set-up for attaching to a swing set. If there were toggle bolts into the tree you could attach it.

Definitely can be mounted easily to a tree without requiring any else. I love this thing BTW.

It can't be hung unless you rig up a way to hang it. There is a place in back to anchor it on a pole or tree. I made a platform to screw it on top of a pole.

It comes with straps. Some improvisation may be in order depending on the tree; the straps are only so long, and may need some sticks to angle it just right. Purely a basic mechanical task.

Yes. It would work on a tree. But you would need to purchase bolts, the bolts provided probably won't work.

I'm sure you could mount it between trees but you would have to buy special hardware to do so if you are intending to mount it directly to tree trunks or thick branches. The included hardware is designed to mount to joists and I believe the included bolts are only 4 inches long so depending on how you intend to secure it to the trees, the included hardware may not suffice? I mounted mine to a 4 inch thick joist in my house and had to buy 6 inch bolts to achieve this. It's approximately 26.5 inches from center to center between the holes designated for mounting the bar - hope that helps answer your questions!

I reread the installation options and maybe you could stick a branch in the hole in the base? But truly, I never tried to mount it from a tree.

I do not have the guide. I can tell you it comes in pieces. The majority of the tree is one piece but there are branches that you have to joint together. Have a solid plan and know it will take time. I peeled back a portion of the large part and worked slowly on it. It took about 2hrs to install and it is amazing! Good luck!

You could get a hook or strap from a hardware store to use it outside on a tree.

You certainly do not want to damage a young, small tree with nails and screws. I would suggest purchasing a wooden post, treated, and nail a square block of wood on the top of the post to accommodate the width of the feeder. If you dig deep enough the extra weight would not affect the balance of the post. It would look quite handsome beside your tree.

We actually hung ours in a tree, since there was not a swing set. Of course we looped some chain on the branch for the glider to hook to rather than the branch itself.

It is attached to the tree and then you get in and climb. The stand has like a pimp action to it. Requires you to use your legs and upper body strength.

You put a small nail in to hang them on. You will have so much fun with them. I have them on several trees.
