Re: bats

["Joan Ruprecht" <ruprecht@tidepool.com>]

I slept in a house with bat's in the attic, they were really amazingly
noisy,   I know these friends were fighting to get rid of them, but I have
forgotten to ask if they were successful.

As a microbiologist bat expert, they certainly are important in the rabies
spreading cycle,  but there are lots of good things about bats too, so
beware take care and don't try to make friends with them.
