Kudos to you, ghostie, for putting up a bat house. My dad builds them and I have a few up around the house. I love "bat watching" in the evenings! 
Agreed, my Menards bat house is lame. Like most things, I didn't realize how lame until I started to do some research. But at least it got me going. I'll probably still put it out as well as one from the OBC. If it doesn't work, I'll use it for kindling...Zombie-F said:...most store-bought bat houses aren't really all that suitable for bats to live in, which is why they suggest building your own.
Ouch! I'm glad to hear you didn't. That's scary stuff.grapegrl said:...almost had to get the rabies series after getting bitten by a roaming dog several years ago
Me too! My sister had to get her rabies shots after being attacked by a possum while she was taking out the trash one night a few years ago. I don't think that it is as nightmarish an ordeal nowadays as it used to be, but it is still scary. Rabies would be a bad way to go.ghostie said:Ouch! I'm glad to hear you didn't. That's scary stuff.
