Bats DO NOT eat many mosquitos,if any. Mossies are way too small
for a bat to bother with. Bats eat mostly moths and other
"bite-sized" insects. They will eat those big flying
cockroaches, and they also hunt the treetops for cicadas and
caterpillars.

Hummingbirds will nab tiny flying insects like whiteflies, so
mosquitos are probably eaten.

Bats do eat mosquitoes. There is a delicacy called "Mosquito eye
soup." The procedure involves putting bat guano in water and the
mosquito eyes float to the top and are skimmed off to add to the soup.
The eyes do not digest well in bats.
