With all of the news reports concerning the Zika virus, this might just be something that could help. If you're not in an area that might be concerned about those particular mosquitos, this could still be useful to get rid of all those other pesky flying critters.

I love it Lew, there is another animal I have an interest in too that keeps your land or barn cleaner from pesky animals, the owl. The owl box is a cool project. Now my question is, if you have a bat box, and an owl box, will the owl's eat the bats?

I have never heard of owl's eating bats, but I guess it's possible, since they are all opportunists

I think owls eat mostly "meat" whereas bats eat insects. I doubt that an owl would catch a bat- unless he has a tennis racket

I'm afraid the only way an owl would catch a bat, is with a tactical nuke. Good thing we haven't taught owls how to fire those yet eh? LOL
