Geez, talk about a timely topic. We have a vacation home in Idaho we've been going to for the last 20 years. UnFortunately we only use it one to two weeks a year at this point. We were there last June and noticed a bunch of gauno on the outside of the house. At the time I thought it was just bats attaching themselves to the outside, how I wish that was the case. We apparently have several roosts in the house and they're living in the inside of the walls. Bats only need a quarter inch by half-inch to get in! They're flying mice as far as I'm concerned. These flying mice are actually federally protected. We're getting estimates in excess of 12,000 just to shore up the areas where the little bastards are getting in, and potentially 30,000 to tear up the walls and clean up the guano and urine which can cause histoplasmosis if not treated properly. The kicker for us is the house is now listed on the market so we have to disclose everything. I WOULD NOT put a "bat house" up any where near a dwelling structure. One cool thing about them is that a colony of 30-50 bats can eat 2-3 MILLION insects a night!
