Why do we love bats? We know they're not technically birds, but insectivorous bats are capable of eating up to their own body weight in insect pests each night, helping to keep your yard free of a variety of pesky insects including mosquitoes. These same “pest control services” also help keep a multitude of crops healthy by eating the insects that feed on them. Bats reproduce slowly, with females of most species giving birth to just one pup each year. Therefore, population recovery fromany serious losses can be painfully slow and it is difficult to identify significant declines in the species until the situation has become dire. On National Bat Day, take some time to learn about what you can do to help increase the bat population and consider installing a bat house as a safe location for shelter and nesting.
