I have bats in my house, what should I do?
Some species of bats will roost in buildings at different times of year for various reasons. There is no single solution to the problem of bats roosting in your house. While there are some health-related issues associated with bats, they are not unique in that regard, and just because they roost in your house does not necessarily increase human health risks. In general, you should strive to prevent bats from gaining access to your house to minimize both health risks, as well as structural damage to the house.
