Build a Bat House - Garden for Wildlife - National Wildlife Federation

From the page: "love bats because mosquitoes LOVE to bite me. Pesticides mostly kill the mosquito's predators rather than mosquitoes. According to Bat Conservation International, a single bat can capture 500 to 1,000 mosquitoes in a single hour! Bats are also interesting because:

* In many ecosystems, they play a key role in pollinating plants.
* There are more than 1,000 species of bats in the world!
* Some bats use echolocation, or high pitched chirps which bounce off objects in front of them, to find their way in the dark.

Before I share my bat house building experience, let me say that I am no carpenter. This was my first time using a circular saw. Hopefully this can help help even the least handy person build a bat house."
