In case my blog title leaves some people a little confused, now is a good time to consider building and placing bat houses for our insect eating, night flying friends. Bat houses are very simple in design.

All bats need is an inverted enclosure with places inside where they can grasp with their little feet to hang upside down for some down time (or is that upside down time?) In any case, bats need places to roost and you can help to make it easy for them to find a home. Use this as an opportunity to teach your kids about the true value of bats.
