bats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
i need bats around my house but how do i keep them from trying to attack me and my friends... i have alot of mosquitoes around my yard and i need the bats to eat them and what are some websites to get plans to build bat houses??? ty
Bats are not going to attack you. The only reason they would do that is if you spooked them when they were sleeping. They only eat bugs, so they have no reason to attack you. Having them in your yard to eat mosquitos is a really good idea.
You could probably just google "how to build a bat house" and you should find plenty of good information on how to do that.

There is one I got in just a few seconds googling that. Try that and google the phrase to find more if you need it.
Hope this helps.
How many at-bats does a baseball player have to have to qualify for the batting crown?
Because one of my favorite palyers presently does not appear among the top batters in the NL, even though he has a batting average of about .340-.350. I realize that he does not appear among the top batters in the league because he lost a bunch of games early in the season due to an injury and thus does not have enough at-bats this season. But he is now off of the DL and playing almost every day. That's why I ask "how many at-bats does a baseball player need to qualify for the batting crown.
he must have an avg. of 3.1 at bats for # of games his team has played. are you talking about brian mcann of the braves?
How do you attract bats to a new bat house?
I know we have bats that fly through the yard at night, so I bought two bat houses. I know they need to be put up high, but then what? Serious answers only, please!
Go to batconservation.org. The site will tell you how and where to mount the bat house.
How do I remove bats from the walls of my house?
For years we have struggled with bats in our house. We have spent money for a professional pest control company to come in and the bats where back the next year. The final straw now is the smell that is coming from our back bathroom, we think it is from the bats. Please help us!
It will take you about 10 day to get rid of all the bats in your house. you will need lots of silicone caulk some expandable foam, a roll of duct tape and some bird netting.
First step....... Find out where the bats are coming and going from. Go outside at dusk and you will see where they are coming from.
Next........ During daylight hours seal all the holes in the boxing and facial of your home except where they are entering and exiting.
Next........ Where the bats are entering and exiting you need to drape the bird netting over these holes. Attach it with staples or tape or both, it needs to be secure at the top and on the sides. Attach it so that it has a little play in the center almost so that you can just reach up into it from the bottom. Do not tape off the bottom of the bird netting.
Here is what will happen............... The bats will come out at dusk and encounter the bird netting. They have to go out so they will flutter down the net then fly away. When they return to go back inside they will try to enter at the same spot they previously did. But the net is in the way, They cannot find the hole in the bottom of the netting to go back in. They will try all night to get back in until dawn. It will take several days to get them all out because they don't all come out every night. Leave the net up for 10 days, but inspect it daily to insure that it is secure. After the 10th day IN THE DAYTIME take the net down and seal the hole.
Unfortunately you will have to live with the smell untill it dries out. It will go away through the heat of the summer but almost impossible to remove. All i can tell you to do about the smell is to use lots of air fresheners.
It cost me 1200 bucks to see this happen on one of my rental houses. I have since succesfully evicted at least 30 bat infested homes. SO SIMPLE A CAVEMAN COULD DO IT!!!!!
How do you get bats to move into a new bat house?
I built a bat house four years ago exactly per spec but I still don't have any bats living in it. Is there some way to "advertise" for tennants?
Attracting Bats - http://www.batcon.org/bhra/attracting.html
Bats have to find new roosts on their own. At this time, there are no proven lures or attractants (including bat guano) that can be inserted in or applied to a bat house. Bats will investigate new roosting opportunities while foraging at night. They are quite good at detecting crevices, cracks, nooks, and crannies that offer shelter against the elements and predators. Bat houses installed on buildings or poles are easier for bats to locate, have greater occupancy rates, and are occupied 2.5 times faster than those mounted on trees.
Unlike domestic animals, bats are wild and free-ranging, and it is typically illegal to buy or sell them. Permits to capture and possess bats are normally limited to researchers, zoos, wildlife rehabilitators and certain educational organizations. Catching and relocating bats to new areas is, in any case, highly unlikely to succeed. Bats have good homing instincts, and once released into a bat house, will attempt to return to their former home area. Placing bats in a bat house is therefore not recommended. If a bat house remains unoccupied after two full years, we recommend repositioning the house or making appropriate modifications.
Maintaining proper roost temperatures is probably the single most important factor for bat house success. Temperatures inside a bat house should be warm and as stable as possible (ideally 80º F to 100º F in summer) for mother bats to raise their young. Some species, like the big brown bat, prefer temperatures below 95º F, while others, like the little brown bat, can tolerate temperatures in excess of 100º F. Bachelor bats are less picky, and may use houses with cooler temperatures. Wooden or masonry structures are the best mounting sites, especially in colder climates, as temperatures are more stable than for houses attached to poles or trees.
Bat house temperatures are influenced directly by the exterior color (dark vs. medium vs. light paints/stains), compass orientation (east-, southeast-, or south-facing are generally good bets for single houses in most climates), the amount of sun exposure, how well the house is caulked and vented, and also the mounting substrate and construction materials used. You may have to experiment to get the right placement and temperature range. You can always use a thermometer taped to a pole (check the chambers high and low, and front and back), to see if temperatures are suitable inside the bat house. Where possible, installing multiple houses is advised to provide a wide range of options from which bats can choose. Bats may move from one house to another throughout the year to find more favorable microclimates or to deter predators.
Pick installation sites with great care to avoid having to move a bat house once it becomes occupied. Most bat houses have open bottoms; therefore guano will not accumulate inside. Guano will end up on the ground underneath, however. Avoid placing bat houses directly above windows, doors, decks, or walkways. Bat urine may stain some finishes. Two- or four-inch spacers between a bat house and wall, a large backboard, or a longer landing area below a bat house may reduce excrement collecting on a wall. A potted plant, or a shallow tray or plant saucer, can be placed underneath a bat house to collect bat guano for use as fertilizer in flower beds or gardens. Do not use a bucket or deep container to catch droppings (unless ¼-inch or smaller mesh covers the entire top of the container), as any baby bats that fall will become trapped inside. Some bat species are able to retrieve their pups from the ground.
Once you have attracted bats, as a “bat house landlord” it is your responsibility to maintain the houses in good condition to keep bats coming back year after year. Wasp and mud dauber nests should be cleaned out each winter after bats and wasps have departed. New caulk and paint/stain may be required after three to five years to guard against leaks and drafts. Bat houses should be monitored at least once a month (preferably more often) to detect potential problems such as predators, overheating, wood deterioration, etc. Any repairs or cleaning should be performed when bats are not present.
