That's why I like our pet bats. Go out front to the street and you'll get eaten alive by the mosquitoes. In the back, we have 3 yards that come together, the bats patrol and keep the area pretty clear. This year there are few mosquitoes out back because it's been so hot and humid, twice the average rainfall in July. Usually you can stay out there all night and night be bothered.

Does one name their pet bats?

Yup, Bat 1, Bat 2 and Bat 3. Doesn't matter though, they never come when you call them.

Yep...the bats are a good thing, though I have noticed a slight decline in the population and hope that disease thats out there doesn't wipe them out....we use to see bunches of them right at dusk, now it's just a couple.
The skeeters still aren't a problem here ...which is amazing with the amount of wooded areas & wetlands around me.
