3,500 lbs. of bat guano found in attic 1 hour, 22 minutes ago
BALLSTON SPA, N.Y. - An upstate New York couple didn't think a few bats in the attic were much of a problem when they were buying a house last summer.
Months later, they found out how wrong they were when they discovered more than a ton and a half of bat droppings up there.
Nick LaBoda and Jenna Caputo say a home inspector informed them about the bats. They called an exterminator, who told them to wait a while before removing the bats because the babies were too young to fly.
Then they forgot about the bats until they smelled a foul odor in January. When they checked the attic, they found dead bats and piles of guano.
An exterminator says hundreds of bats had been living in the attic, leaving behind 3,500 pounds of droppings.
It cost $25,000 to clean up the mess, and the couple's insurance company wouldn't cover it. They're fighting it out in court.

This takes a whole new look on the batcave. Alfred and Bruce are in the batcave and Bruce turns to Al and says:
"Alfred what is that strange smell?"
"Well sir you do remember that we have bat's in this cave, well they have been rather busy eating fruit and they have made a bit of a mess." Moments later a giant ball of turd drops from the roof.........Holy flying batcrap batman!

1.6 tonnes of guano should have been worth a shitload for a local garden centre.
