white nose fungus is spreding like wildfire, it is already out of control in 19 states, it is deadly to the bats and without bats, we will be over run with insects, and it will cause an eco-disaster, pray that a cure can be found quickly...

That does NOT sound good!!! Bats eats millions of mosquitoes nightly. The farmers love the bats. Like Emily said, I will definitely be praying, also!
Hugs to you!!!!!!!

We recently had a group of bats in our barn (back in May maybe). We hope to build bat houses, because that barn is falling apart and needs torn down.

'Hadn't even heard about this before reading your post, Tina! That definitely isn't good at all! Just said a prayer, too! Thanks for letting us know! - Nini
