For example, a Florida colony of 30,000 southeastern bats consumes 50 tons of insects annually, including over 15 tons of mosquitoes and from 77.4% to 84.6% of little brown bats living in the northern U.S. and Canada eat mosquitoes." Bats don't get rid of mosquitoes completely, but the right species of bat can be great to have to help keep their numbers down.
