Yeah, if they are roosting in fixtures near/above the front door, you probably want to do something about that. Change out the cans and/or cover them so there is no access for bats to get up there.
They are great for keeping the flying insect population down, but there is risk of disease to humans and pets that "coexist" with them (albeit relatively small). Being near the front door would increase the chances of one getting in the house as well. Even though the percentage of rabies-carrying bats is fairly low, it is a disease that can be transmitted by means other than just being bitten by the infected animal. So, best not to encourage any close-proximity scenarios with them IMO.
