16th Mar 2022, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

HOW MANY BATS DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE A LIGHT BULB? None. In this case, it took a kind, tolerant and understanding estate manager who was willing to try one of our suggestions - changing the light fittings to smoother ones in order to deter the #bats from clinging on to & roosting inside the building and soiling the floor.
