Bats Above!

We have house guests! First I noticed "spots" on my driveway. They looked suspiciously familiar. I looked over head and saw my guests. I can't tell if they are the same kind of bats that call my bathouse home. These have decided they like the louvered vent over our garage.
I now take care not to stand just outside the garage door!
Ya'll Come Back!

  1. I love bats, but those look so creepy in the vent. Maybe it's the legs. Too bad you can't harvest those droppings for fertilizer. Good luck with those little critters.

  2. Okay, those are a little scary to me, but then I've only seen one or two in my life. Is there a way to get them to leave?

  3. Oh dear! They look a little creepy but I know they are harmless. In fact they eat tons of mesquitos every day so they are a benefit! Have you looked into putting up a bat house? Maybe that will draw them away from your house. Good luck! Hugs, Loretta

  4. Those are not the same bats as the pictures from your bat house. Notice the little tail. Brazilian free-tailed bats may share the bat house with your Myotis. Corky, NorCalBats.org

  5. EWWWWWw....they DO look creepy in the vent. And now I've learned something....I would not have recognized the spots on the concrete as bat poop....I swear, I learn something new everyday! Thanks! Hope you're doing well!

  6. You really did go all out this Halloween !!! Your Mom would be so proud.

    Bats are thinking: who needs little house in backyard when we can have big house right up front.
