I've had them on my patio off & on. If I find droppiings, I go out with my "bat whacker" (an 8 ft. piece of thin wood) at night and disturb them. I don't try to hurt them, just disturb them so they'll fly off and not feel comfortable coming back to hang around. I have two overhead fans on my patio. I've seen them fly up into the fans (not working at the time) through the crack between the rotating hub & housing. I guess they try to roost inside. Once I found a really small bat. I thought it was a small species or something. So I started disturbing it with my "bat whacker", & it started screeching. A bigger bat came, landed beside it & covered it with one of its wings. The mother bat I assumed. I felt bat for bothering the little bat.
