I get blocks in my house at night and think that they are way into my ring. I then fly out to dust for food, but I can not liberarselo of. I tried the cap over the holes that I see them fly by but just go to a different area when they return.

Build bat houses around your home then seal up any openings in your home. Seriously bat houses are a good idea if you want to cut down on insects especially mosquitoes They are very simple to build. Or cheap to buy. contrary to popular belief, bats are beneficial. But I can understand that you don’t want them IN you home.

I agree, get animal controll to come out and get them out of your house. Find someone to help you stop up the areas where they are roosting and then check with a nature center about putting a bat house up in a tree near by. They are great for keeping insects at bay. They may need a better place to roost.

There are professional services that specialize in just bat removal. Most of them have silly names like “the Bat Man” so you’ll know that’s just what they do.
Personally, I would begin with building a few bat houses around my home (it should be pretty easy to find directions on the Internet) and place some fruits around the house for a few nights. Depending on the type of bats, either they will be drawn to the fruit, or bugs will be drawn to the fruit and the bats will come out to eat the bugs. If they find a suitable place to rest, other than in your home, they will probably select this.
I wouldn’t want bats nesting in my home, because they could cause damage, but it is nice to have them around because many varieties of bats do eat bugs.
