This is a common misconception
Conclusion:
We definitely agree with the assertion that bats will feed upon mosquitoes, but based upon numerous studies we believe it has been shown that bats are opportunistic feeders and are not an effective or reliable form of mosquito control.
Our concern is the misinformation that comes from taking one sentence out of an entire study and then making wide sweeping assumptions that may affect the publics’ perception on what are effective mosquito control tactics.
