There are definitely Haitian bats, but I am in the city and I am not sure if there are still populations around here.

Jay C. White Cloud - those links are great. Thanks.

A few people mentioned predatory birds as well. I guess I could build a few birdhouses and a few bathouses and see what happens?

Yeah, I have chikungunya.

I think there are bats here. There are definitely dragonflies and various birds, but I'm not sure if they eat mosquitoes.

I don't think it's possible to address the problem at the breeding site. They're breeding in puddles, rain pooled in trash, gutters etc. It's impossible. I'm in the city.

I'm in Haiti. Thinking of building a bathouse here to encourage bats to eat mosquitoes.

I found a bunch of plans to build bathouses at www.batcon.org

i see a lot of people on the internet talking about how bats eat a lot of mosquitoes, but I haven't seen a successful case study where building a bathouse led to less mosquitoes.

Has this method worked for anyone?
