Default I just ran a bat out of my house

I had to chase it with a blanked until it got too tired to fly.


I then threw it outside.


It made a vibrating sound when I had the blanket over it.


That's is silly way to do it.
Just open some windows, and it will just fly back out.
Bats are much better at it than birds,
who will continue to hit the one window that isn't open.

Echo location really helps,

Only works if they *want* to leave. I once lived in a house with attic
bat-cave. At one point, we found a long-undusted vase in the living
room to be a baby-bat nursery. The little things are actually cute.

But bats are apparently able to squeeze through small openings, which
may explain all the times people say "I can't figure out how it got
in."
