The Wisconsin Bat Monitoring Program relies heavily on grants and funding support from Wisconsin citizens and individuals interested in conservation and management of insectivorous bats. Get involved in one or more ways:
- If you know of large numbers of bats in caves, mines, barns, bridges, churches, schools, or other buildings, please contact Wisconsin Bat Program at (608-266-5216).
- Use approved, non-lethal methods to exclude bats from your home.
- Build and install a bat house.
- Volunteer time for acoustic surveys or bat house monitoring.
- Contribute tax deductible donations needed for immediate projects.
- Donate funds to sustain a long-term program.
We have created a Conservation Endowment through the Natural Resources Foundation of WI to support the WI bat program in perpetuity. Be sure to select Endowed Fund for the Program Description and write the words "Bat Fund" in the Fund Name text box below.
