RE: [RC] [RC] off topic--How to make Bats move? - bobmorris

Why not accept the fact that they like living with you and
they are providing insect control at no cost to you. They
can be no more of a noise problem than a couple of kids. Be
happy that you have them.

Snowblower?  Maybe they will think it is a hurricane and
leave?;0)  Hose?  
Garlic and onions? (this is serious ,but there are lots of
fun ideas)-- A 
Trouble light for 24 hrs?  Rock music?

The problem is...they don't all leave at the same time. We

have 

observed
them and several stay there, while others go hunt. We also

know that since 

we can constantly hear them come and go and hear the others

in the spot 

too. So we would love to put up a bat house (we have bought

some) but can't 

think of how to get them all out of there at ONCE. Any

suggestions?? I 

heard you can play loud rock music and they will flee. We

have tried 

banging on the wall near them but that just makes them

squeek louder.

  Hi Karla: You can build a substitute Bat house for them.

They are 

small
and do not take up a lot of space. Their are certain rules

for the 

placement of the New structure, that should be on the web.

Then you can 

normally find the entrance and exist points and check when

the Bat's leave 

to eat the West Nile mosquito's and other critters and just

block the 

entrances and exists. There may be a local person who is

licensed in the 

handling and helping bat's that may assist you.
  In California at least.

    Off topic of endurance/Need help:
    I have bats living between my house and fireplace

outside. I do 

love
bats and do not want to hurt them or kill them. They are

GOOD for keeping 

bug population down. But they are LOUD and I can hear them

constantly in my 

living room, especially at night. Any ideas on having them

move to another 

locale?? -----Karla Watson/Portland,Oregon
