BUILD OR BUY YOUR OWN BAT HOUSE

Why should you put up a bat house?
Bat houses will definitely benefit you, your family, communities, farmers, gardeners and the ecosystem as a whole.
-
Bats will eat thousands of insects and much more.
-
Bat houses give bats an alternative roosting place in preference to our houses thus reducing the chance of human to bat contact.
-
Bat populations have decreased significantly and bat houses can help provide a secure habitat for them.
