Bat removal
Has anyone ever had to remove a bat (or several for that matter)? I just got a call that there'* a bat in my rental house.. Who knows, there could be multiple.

I have heard a tennis racket works because it is harder for them to detect coming at them but that’* not the nice way to remove them. I would try a fishing net. But if they are getting in and hanging out you will have to seal up however they are getting in or I'd imagine they will just come back.

I have no interest in killing them. I want to do this humanely. Plus, they're in the attic. The attic is technically not living space...storage at best. But, I can understand how they'd be a nusance.
I don't think I'll be going at this "Great Outdoors style". I'll go over there one night, after dark and wait for them to leave to feed. Once gone, I'll seal up the hole. After my initial post, I an idea popped in my head with where they might be coming in from.
