Bat Houses for Mosquito Control?

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone has tried putting up bat houses around their house/farm to help control mosquitoes, & flies?

If so, how effective was it, were you able to notice a decline in the amount of mosquitoes? I was thinking of making some

to help reduce the population around our farm, along with some other measures (mosquito traps, insecticidees/larvacides).

 

Thanks!

Would do no harm to try that,and not expensive, do you have

any bats in your area, ? we had a colony in a big tree near our

house at night they would come out and eat the insects flying

around the street lights, 

 

So you may need to put some lights up too to attract the insects

at night, or the bats might just fly away looking for better hunting

grounds. good luck
