[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop with the rabies hysteria. We had one living in our window. They eventually leave. They tend to arrive at 4 or 5 am after eating bugs all night. You might want to look in the attic and keep your door closed. Or go out at night and look for bats emerging from your house at dark. [/quote]

You sound dumb. How is it "hysteria" to point out that bats can carry rabies, can infect you without you knowing, and if you are not treated you will die?

OP, you need pest control, stat. Are you renting? Call your landlord. If not, call pest control yourself. In the meantime, call animal control the next time you see a bat. Also, contact the health department and let them know there have been bats in your house, you don't know how they entered or how long they were there.

Source: found a dead bat in our basement. Called animal control and they took it for testing. The guy warned us if it was positive or inconclusive they would send out whole family for rabies shots because we didn't know how/when it had entered or what parts of the house it had been in. Luckily it was "freshly" dead so they could confirm it didn't have rabies. This was a year after we had a our attic bat proofed after a nest was found there. We think the last one just came in through an open door but were never sure.[/quote]
