5 Bat Houses Donated to Royal Tyrrell Museum - Drumheller, AB

"Through the generous support of Canadian Bat Houses Inc. and Dr. Robert Barclay, Professor and Department Head of Biological Sciences at the University of Calgary, the Museum will be introducing five bat houses into Midland Provincial Park in spring 2011. Our hope is that through the use of bats we can reduce the use of pesticides used to control mosquito larvae and adult mosquitoes in the surrounding area. Each bat house can hold up to 200 bats and each bat can eat up to its weight equivalent in insects each night. That’s a lot of mosquitoes!" - from the Royal Tyrrell Museum's website
