Did you know that bats, the only flying mammals, have a fascinating way of coping with seasonal changes? These nocturnal creatures, often misunderstood, have developed unique survival strategies that can vary widely between species. In this post, we’ll find out whether bats typically migrate, hibernate, or have different seasonal behavior changes altogether.
Bats are interesting animals and they do a lot of good for farmers. They are known to eat up to 2,000 insects in one night! Many of these insects that they eat destroy the farmers crops. Additionally, they are neat to look at as they fly around in the evenings. However, you don’t want to handle a bat or get too close as you can be bitten. What do bat bites look like? They are a small bite and difficult to recognize, but are less than 1mm in diameter and look like a pin prick.
Wouldn’t it be crazy if you came home from work one day and sat down on the couch to read a good book, and in the middle of your peace, you started hearing a screechy noise coming from the ceiling? As the sound continues, you venture up into your attic space in search of the noise. Could it be a bird or something else? As you get into the attic and turn the light on, you see clear as day a collection of bats hanging from the trusses in your attic! Are bats in your house dangerous? Yes, because they can transmit disease and cause damage with their urine and droppings.
