Bats in the attic
Hi . We use Tom Boucher of Alpha Omega as well. We live in Moultonboro. We had bats living in the contained space above our farmer's porch. BUT, my husband noticed bat guano on the side of the house (bats were getting in thru very small space-we have vinyl siding which has LOTS of opportunities for bats). We got out the power washer to wash off the sides of the house ... this was probably May of last year. The bats went away. Tom said that the noise of the power washer water hitting the house (and maybe some water getting into where they were living) spooked them. However, the Histoplasmosis virus is real---I suffered from what's called Probable Ocular Histoplasmosis Syndrome (POHS) ... it has caused permanent scarring in the retina of my left eye and left me with slightly degraded sight in that eye. It's not uncommon in the southwest, on chicken farms, on Indian reservations and for spelunkers (cave explorers). I have no idea how I got mine. Hire a professional, it's not terribly expensive.
