What works all night, without pay, and sleeps all day, out of the way?
You are right!
What better worker to have on the job than a Little Brown Bat!
That's actually only one type of bat! Really!
Then there's Mexican Free-Tails, and Mexican Long-Noses, and Mexican & Jamaican Fruit Bats, and, well, you're starting to get the picture, right? There are LOTS of species of bats, and, they are ALL beneficial!
| Just one little brown myotis bat can catch a thousand mosquito-sized insects in ONE hour, and, a colony of 150 Big Brown Bats can catch enough cucumber beetles each summer to prevent egg laying that otherwise would infest local gardens with 33 million root worms! | Cucumber and June beetles, stinkbugs, leafhoppers, plus cutworm and corn earworm moths - all well-known pests - are just a few of the many insects consumed by these frequent users of bat houses. |
