I once had the disconcerting feeling of a bat flying just over my head in a dark hallway – it just brushed my hair and I barely managed to stifle a scream, so I can’t imagine what it must be like to have an entire colony of the creatures roosting in your attic. I remember ...
If you discover a single bat or a colony of bats in your home, attic, or barn, don’t panic. Bats sometimes get into homes and other buildings through chimneys, roofs, windows, or attics in need of repair. Amazingly, bats are able to go in and out of places as small as 1/4 inch in diameter! ...
I got a severe case of the heebie-jeebies when a friend told me that his house was infested with bats. I’ve never been phobic of any animal; the occasional mouse or rat has never sent me running and screaming into another room. But there’s something particularly (if unfairly) creepy about bats.

Forget the Hollywood movies about bats sucking people’s necks. They don’t actually do that. The Vampire Bat in South America bites the uncovered big toe- yikes. (There’s something uncomfortable about that.) Other bats eat fruit exclusively, and still others prefer grubs or other insects. In Bexar County, Texas, we have the Mexican Brown Bat, or ...
If you see a bat in your home, it most likely means that a bat colony has chosen to roost in your attic or chimney. This is common in older homes and homes near a river or bayou. Bats will also roost in disused chimneys, when the owners installed a new furnace with side venting. ...
When people think of bats they usually think of Batman or vampires, or some nasty animal that flies around at night and carry rabies.
