Having bat houses on your property is a way to enjoy observing these useful predators of flying insects (such as mosquitoes) at your own home. Beginner and expert woodworkers are welcome to join Rene, bat enthusiast, as he demonstrates how to construct a bat house for your property. He will begin the program with a slide show about bats in our area and their natural history. Proper care and placement of your bat house will also be discussed.
