Mexican-free tailed bats are the most common in the San Antonio area. Their main diet are agricultural pest insects like Corn ear moth, Cotton boil Moth. Midges, flies, and mosquitoes would also be eaten. ----- Original Message ----- From: Missy Singleton To: wavyca...@gmail.com ; t.b.sam...@gmail.com Cc: texascavers@texascavers.com Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2012 11:16 AM Subject: RE: [Texascavers] San Antonio bat question..
I would say the most common bat in the San Antonio area is the Mexican-free tailed bat; their main diet is midges, flies, and mosquitoes. Although I'm sure they also eat moths and beetles.
