I watch bats go around my house at night. The street light just out side the house on the lane must encourage them. The street lamp has always irritated me but the bats fascinate me. Does the evidence of bats and lights mean that the bats visiting my area may disappear if the light goes off at 11 pm?
Unlikely to totally disappear, but the lights attract the insects if the light goes off the inscets will dispears into the local area fields, woods etc as will the bats after them.
