How long can a bat live in your house?
Nothing it won't live long enough cause it doesn't have food or shelter to live.
From http://www.ecologyasia.com/verts/bats/lesser-bamboo-bat.htm : "The Bamboo Bat...will forage at night for flying insects, particularly termite swarms."
Bats do not typically attack humans unless provoked or threatened. In rare cases, bats may bite humans if they feel scared or cornered. It is important to avoid contact with bats and seek medical attention if bitten, as they can carry diseases such as rabies.
No, bats are flying mammals.
· bats are mammals - warm-blooded, give birth to live young
· wings are folds of skin supported by elongated finger bones
· resting bad hang head downward - making it easy to take to flight at any given moment
· average sized Canadian bat - weighs 8 g, wing span of about 22 cm
· larges Canadian species weighs about 30 g, wing span of 40 cm
· smallest Canadian species weighs about 5 g
· bats are not blind - they can see very well
· bats are nocturnal creatures
· bats in Canada feed on insects - will consume 50-100 percent of their body weight in one night
· Bats use echolocation to catch prey
· send out high frequency sound waves to find objects in their path
· echolocation calls are ultrasonic - beyond human hearing range in most cases but there is the Spotted Bat (euderma maculatum) which uses lower frequency echolocation calls which can be heard by people
· Canada has 19 species of bats
· life span of over 30 years
What are the differences between ash and maple bats?
Here is a good summary of both Bat Types
Hard Rock Maple-
Maple bats have become very popular over the past ten years. After Barry Bonds broke the single season home run record with one many players switched to the hard wood to swing with. Unlike ash Maple bats have very little flex but pack a lot of pop. Maple bats are heavier if not turned correctly but are great for training bats as well as a long term bat.
Traditional Ash-
I call it "traditional" because bats have been made with ash since baseball began in the early 1900's. There is nothing like the feeling of swinging an unfinished ash bat. Ash is unlike any other wood bat in the way that the bat flexes when it hits the ball, letting the ball carry further. Ash bats are great but lack the strength of other harder woods. But if you hit with any wood bat correctly it will last you a ton of at-bats.

bats make high pitched squeals to find their way around in the dark, they have poor eyesight so the noises bounce back to tell them where things are.
How high should a bat house be?
10-20 feet off the ground at least ten feet from branches or other trees to avoid predators if the temperature in summer stays below 100 degrees then needs about 6hr a day in direct sunlight If the temperatures average 80 degrees or lower then 10hrs of direct sunlight per day is required. preferably within a mile of sitting water due to increases in bug quantities for feeding. hope this helps
How long can a bat hang upside down?
Bats can hang upside down for as long as they want. They do not need to use any muscles to hold on to something. They have special tendons in their feet that lets them hang around without exerting any energy. All they have to do to hang is relax. The weight of the upper body pulls down on this tendon and causes the talons to clench or grab hold. The talon joints lock and the bats weight keeps them closed. The bat only needs to release its grip to fly off.

What layer of a rainforest does a vampire bat can be found?
A Vampire bat is found in the emergent layer.
The same way we do - by using their ears ! Bats use ultra-sonic sound which is higher than the range humans can hear - their 'squeaks' bounce off objects, and prey and are reflected back to the bat so it can navigate in total darkness.
