And it's being subsidized by the government.
Fewer bats, more pesticides, fewer bug encrusted vehicle windshields, and more dead babies.
It’s all connected 😞.
You beat me to it.

NaNoBatWriMo isn't until November.
The Batterfly Effect
I like bats for the same reason I like spiders. They themselves largely keep to themselves and leave you alone while eating things that don't.
I like bats because they're little cuties.
One of the local universities here has a bat fest every year. I always go to see the cute bats.
Quick, FlyingSquid. To the Bat-festival!
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na bat festival!
We have a couple of orb weavers in our small backyard and we've been getting a ton of beautiful webs everyday and a bonus. No bugs
It's always bats
Or, in this case, not being batty enough.
Now that's a Freakonomics episode.
