    On February 2, 2010, I was contacted by channel 12 news reporter John Bachman.  He
was interested in meeting with me to obtain information for a news report he had been
assigned to cover on bats that had infested a house in the St. James area in Port Saint
Lucie, Florida.  

  
  John Bachman, of CBS Channel 12 News reported;  "To see the bats fly is a wonder of
nature that you can almost set your watch by."  He watched as the Brazilian free tailed bats
poured out from underneath the barrel tiles of the vacant home as the sun began to set.

    "They just start swarming out around dusk," said neighbor Michelle Botterbusch.  Only
this isn't nature it's right next door to Michelle Botterbusch's house and she's had enough.  
"They're just nasty, and knowing that they're there is frightening.  The smell.  Thinking of
rabies."  she said.

  
  "The smell, well it's about the same as stale cat urine.  The bats have also decorated the
walls of their adopted home with feces, and while the risk of rabies is quite small, neighbor
Barry Woods, says "something needs to be done."  Seeing them come down and swooping.
 The sky filled with bats, it's kind of a scary situation when you first look at it."  Woods, said.

  
  The bats are fairly common here and are protected because they help control the
mosquito population.  They slip under the Spanish tiles that adorn so many south Florida
roofs and make themselves at home and it seems the bats are the only one's living at the
house.  Neighbors say the home is in foreclosure.  Even if there were someone to pay for
the removal, bat expert David Diaz, of American Bat Removal said, they'd just come back
unless the house was completely bat proofed.  "They are going to stay as close as
possible," Diaz said.  And that means that all the nearby homeowners may also have to bat
proof their roofs, which not everyone can afford to do.  " It's tedious work is what it is," Diaz
said.  

 
   "So with few options, neighbors sit every night and watch the bats take off and wish they
would fly far - far away."  John Bachman, Channel 12 News.

What You Should Know
    Bats live on every continent in the world except Antarctica. There are 925 different species of bats
which make up almost one quarter of the entire 4,625 known species of mammals.  In Florida, 19
different species of bats inhabit homes, buildings, man-made structures, trees, tree hollows and caves.
Large colonies may find refuge under roof tiles, in attics, chimneys or any other small gaps that may
give them access to a void in the roof or structure.  A hole as small as 1/4 of an inch wide is all that is
needed for a bat to squeeze through and find it's way into your home or business.  Our bat specialist
are experienced in recognizing these gaps and are throughly trained to ensure the best solution is
initiated when handling these problems.  Bats are extremely territorial and unless the proper steps are
taken to exclude them correctly, the problem will persist.  Bat exclusions should only be done by
licensed, qualified professionals.
