flag White-nose syndrome, a deadly bat disease, has been confirmed in three bats in northern Idaho for the first time, with cases in Bonner and Kootenai counties in 2025 and 2026, and prior positive tests in Kootenai and Clearwater counties without symptoms. flag The fungus, which has killed millions of bats since 2006, spreads through bat contact or contaminated gear but does not harm humans or other animals. flag Idaho’s bats provide $313 million in annual pest control benefits. flag Authorities urge the public to avoid disturbing bats, report clusters of five or more dead or sick bats, and not handle them.
