Wildlife Bat Box, Pine with Black Roof

Installing a Bat House can provide a safe environment for hundreds of bats.

Bat houses give females a safe, warm place to raise their young. Because bats typically only have one pup each year, populations are slow to grow. Additioanlly, because of habitat loss, bats are finding it harder to find places to roost during the day and to raise their young.

By installing a bat house, you give these pups a chance to survive and for populations to be healthy. And all those healthy bats mean we can use fewer pesticide on our plants—a win win for everyone.

Did you know:

• Bats eat their body weight of pesky bugs each night?
• Bats are the third most important pollinator?
• Bats spread seeds which help to keep our native plants thriving?
