A few myths busted tonight

A talk at St Denys church from Bob Comes of the Bedfordshire Bat Group

There are 12 species of bats in this country and Vampire bats are NOT one of these (pheww!). Bats are NOT blind – they see very well thank you. And, finally, what mum told me and others believe – bats do NOT get tangled in your hair. Notwithstanding all this I don’t find them pretty creatures and whilst Bob gave his talk a few bats flew around the church – I kid you not.

  1. We had one in our home a few years ago, and while they are endangered and protected, I was forced to do hand-to- hand combat with one. Not fun. we then spent thousands of dollars bat-proofing our house . Imluved in fear of having caught rabies, but I escaped unharmed.
