  • Beyond Pesticides - Mosquitoes and Insect-Borne Diseases on 2006-06-24
    • Consider
      the community use of a bat house as part of your natural mosquito abatement
      program. Many zoos, parks, and city managers have installed bat houses
      in order to provide roosting habitat for their local bat species, as a
      single bat is capable of eating 500 - 1000 mosquitoes per hour. Though
      they may not always eat that many mosquitoes, they are known to be an
      important part of keeping a natural check on exploding mosquito populations.
      Bats are one of our most beneficial creatures alive. Yet, due to human
      development and the use of pesticides, the numbers of bats are in serious
      decline (with some species threatened by extinction).

      As primary predators of night-flying insects, bats play a key role in the balance of nature,



      consuming vast quantities of insects, many of which are costly agricultural and yard pests.

      Furthermore, many insects avoid areas where they hear bats.
