Great idea -- and I have two great pin oaks right in front of our great front porch; but, the mosquitos make it very difficult to spend much time there.
There is something about bats that I just love. Maybe the way they sleep upside down, och the fact that you wont have any insect problems with them around. Anywho, this victorian bat house would fit them perfect!

Bat houses. This solution is not for everyone, but bats are incredibly good for your gardens and outdoor areas, because they feast on bugs.

While not for everyone, a bat house is a great way to keep the bugs away. I chose this one because of its mad Victorian styling, which seems appropriate for bats!
Dimensions: 6" x 15" x 30." The landing pad at the base and divided living quarters will hold up to 100 bats. This house comes ready to mount on a pole, building, or 4 x 4 post. — Becky Harris
