Bats eat a lot of bugs, so we need them. A lot of people in our area have bat houses to encourage them. Do not ever pick up or bother a bat that is on the ground and looks sick. Kill it and bury it, or take it to your health dept. to be tested. Bats do get rabies but they will not bother you unless you pick one up that is sick.

Found out recently that I have bats in my loft. I had been seeing them flying around previous to this, just had no idea where they were living.
I only found them becasue my kitten kept on looking at a certain part of the roof and crying, and trying to climb the wall, even though nothing was there, and my other cat wasn't doing the same thing. I decided to go into the loft to see if anything was there, and lo and behold, there they were.

Some years back I kept a Praying Mantis as a pet, and they only eat live food! Consequently, I acquired the skill of GENTLY capturing live flies in flight, or off any surface, so that I could feed my Mantis uninjured and active prey. Most moving incident was late one night when on arrival home I found my Mantis shedding its skin. I watched, enthralled, for over an hour and I shall never forget seeing my Mantis gradually extend and spread its brand new rainbow-shimmering wings. Next day I released it onto a grapevine in my garden, the same garden in which I subsequently found a swarm of very tiny, recently hatched mantids! They are the cutest little creatures you could ever imagine.

We get bats flying around in the summer where my parents live in a little village called Tiptree in Colchester, Essex, UK.
You seem to see them a lot less than you used a few years ago though.

Yes! And we like to toss small stones up into the air and watch the bats swoop down to check and see if it's a bug. I adore bats! I even had one accidentally come too close to the top of my head and brush my hair.

Yes, I love it when they are flying around above me when I take my evening walk!

Yes we do and i'm going to do what 2bzy said and try and throw small stones to get them to fly at them.

Yes. My friends and family did not believe me until I pointed them out during dusk one evening. I think many people see them but think they are looking at a bird.
