Finlayson’s Cave Bats are insectivorous, and forage in cluttered areas of vegetation, canopies, escarpments, scree slopes, and other surfaces. They are often observed foraging over water.

|
||
Timing of reproduction varies throughout the range: in northern portion of the range, Finlayson’s Cave Bat appears to breed year-round, with peaks in births in March and September to October; but in south, the species has a single breeding season, with births in November or December. Mating has been observed in late June: male couples with female from rear, while hanging from ceiling. Litter size is one or two, with more single young in north (20% are twins) and more twins in south. Females carry their young for first week but then begin to leave them at the roost at night. Nursing females are typically found further into their cave or mine roosts, where temperature is more constant. Young start attempting flight at 2-3 weeks, and are volant by 3-4 weeks old.

Finlayson’s Cave Bats leave their roosts at dusk, to forage at night. They roost primarily in caves, crevices, and abandoned mines (typically close to the entrance). They are also occasionally reported to roost in abandoned nests of fairy martins (

Finlayson’s Cave Bat has been recorded at speeds of 19-5 km/h during straight and level flight, although it often zigzags, rapidly changes direction, and performs alternating series of near vertical rolls in opposite directions. Colony size is generally 2-20 individuals but can exceed 500; unlike several other cave-dwelling bats, it does not create maternity colonies. It rarely switches roosting sites. Females and males have distinct roosting habits, with females typically roosting in large clusters and males usually in smaller groups (often in inaccessible crevices). The species seems to prefer roosts with low humidity (under 30% relative humidity) and a temperature range of 16-35°C. A colony that contained over 200 young roosting separated from the adults was observed by S. K. Churchill in western

, in 2008. The young roosted in tightly clumped groups in the warm part of an abandoned mine. Interestingly, when disturbed, they flew off and separated, joining the small clusters of adults that were scattered throughout the mine. The species has been recorded sharing caves and mines with Taphozous species, as well as the Ghost False-vampire (Macroderma gigas), which is also one ofits few natural predators.
