Ugh! Bat!!!

LdyBugz — Thu, 15 Jul 2021 21:25:56 GMT

Welp, I guess I'm never going to my son's house again. Nope. Not going there. This thing is HUGE, like Amazon jungle size! I cannot deal with bats. Nope. And don't bother telling me they are cute and they eat the bugs. They are not cute. Puppies are cute. Babies are cute. Bats are not cute. I don't care how many bugs they eat. Nope. Not going to his house. Nope. That is all.

😬😬😬😬😬

I like bats and am glad for their existence.

Leave him alone and he'll be gone tonight. Just hanging out.

Everyone's idea of what's cute is different. I personally think most bats are cute.

A couple of years ago, a bat got INSIDE our house! What a rigmarole getting it out, but we finally did.

@GenXmuse. Nope. And nope to anyone else that likes them. LOL!

@Sushismom, I think I recognize your photo from Baby Bats and Buddies of Australia. I just love the flying foxes. She is a super lady to rehab, and raise the orphans for release.
That being said, I would freak out to find a local bat in my home.

I learned the hard way: Where there's one, there must be a colony! Hopefully not in your walls.

@JeanLouiseFinch. Yep, been through that, too. Never want to go through that experience again thank you very much! Nope.

In fact, back in1980 I signed up to be a U.S. Census taker. Knocked on someone's door and 8 gazzillion bats flew out from behind the shutters. I left a trail of smoke behind me while running away. Quit that job immediately!

@RoughDraft. That's exactly what I told my son! And I told him he should caulk underneath that last slat of siding that meets the foundation so that they don't work their way through the walls!

Lol.

Look at these rascals.

Although rare, bats can carry rabies. Best to let a professional remove them.

@Foxxee What a bunch of adorable little critters!

I thought bats were nocturnal. Looks like daytime in the picture of the bat on the house. That might not be a good sign. Then again, I don't really know anything about bats.
