Bats are good. Bats eats a ton of bugs. Bugs are all around hunting camp. Build a bat house and attract them to eat the bugs around hunting camp!
A bat house consists of a box with vertical partitions dividing the interior that create "chambers or areas" for the bats to hang-out in. The space between the vertical partitions is around 3/4 of an inch. Have a minimum of 2 or 3 partitions with "more being better".
