Pipistrelle bats in Arkanas can be found in caves in Devil's Den State Park and Withrow Springs State Park.
The Eastern Pipistrelle Bat
Pipistrelle bats eat small insects such as gnats, flies and moths, as well as aquatic insects. They may eat up to 3000 insects in a single night.

Pipistrelle bats typically have a fur coloration that ranges from light brown to dark brown, often with a slightly lighter underbelly. Their fur can appear somewhat glossy, and they may feature a mix of shades that help them blend into their surroundings. The exact hue can vary among different species of pipistrelle bats.
Madeira Pipistrelle was created in 1878.
Christmas Island Pipistrelle was created in 1900.
The soprano pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus) and common pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) are two closely related bat species primarily distinguished by their echolocation calls and some morphological traits. The soprano pipistrelle emits higher frequency calls, typically around 55 kHz, while the common pipistrelle has lower frequency calls, around 45 kHz. Additionally, the soprano pipistrelle tends to be slightly smaller and has a more rounded wing shape compared to the common pipistrelle. Despite these differences, both species are often found in similar habitats and are challenging to differentiate without acoustic analysis.
Scientific name: Pipistrellus pygmaeusThe Soprano Pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus) is a small bat. It was only formally separated from the Common Pipistrelle Pipistrellus pipistrellus in 1999. The two species were first distinguished on the basis of their different-frequency echo-location calls. The Common Pipistrelle uses a call of 45 kHz, while the Soprano Pipistrelle echo-locates at 55 kHz. The two species are sometimes called the 45 kHz pipistrelle and the 55 kHz pipistrelle, or the bandit pipistrelle (common) and the brown pipistrelle(soprano). Since the two species were split, a number of other differences, in appearance, habitat and food, have also been discovered.Information taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soprano_Pipistrelle

Yes, pipistrelle bats are considered insectivores, which means they primarily feed on insects. They consume a variety of small flying insects such as moths, flies, and beetles. While they are not carnivores in the traditional sense of hunting larger animals, their diet consists entirely of animal matter in the form of insects.
The Duggars live in the Tonitown/Springdale area of Arkansas.
