For example, a Florida colony of 30,000 southeastern bats consumes 50 tons of insects annually, including over 15 tons of mosquitoes and from 77.4% to 84.6% of  little brown bats living in the northern U.S. and Canada eat mosquitoes.&quot;<p>Bats don&#x27;t get rid of mosquitoes completely, but the right species of bat can be great to have to help keep their numbers down.
