Bats are gentle mammals. Thirteen species of bats occur in Nebraska. The big brown bat, red bat and little brown bat are most common in this state. A single bat is capable of consuming over 1,000 insects per night. Only a very small percentage of bats are associated with rabies and histoplasmosis; other common animals have a higher incidence of rabies. This publication covers other bat facts; their ecological and economic importance; bat signs; preventing entry; live bat trapping; individual bat removal; repellents; toxicants; and bat houses.
