How to stop bats from hanging out on my front porch?

The local bats have found a new quot;hotspotquot; for their evening meeting place - my front porch! I am sick of sweeping bat poop off the porch every morning (granted, it's much better than when they were in the attic and sometimes got in the house!!)I had read that strips of aluminum foil hung from the porch ceiling would confuse their radar and would make them find a new place to hang outHas anyone successfully tried this or do you have other successful bat quot;removalquot; techniques? Thanks!

Answer:

Oh my god ! Your going to eat your cat !! Please just put it up for adoptionThat cat is aliveDon't just kill itYou bought the cat its your responsibilityGive it to an adopton centre and they'll look after the cat fine, just dont eat it!!
If you don't want the cat, then take him to the nearest no-kill shelter!
Simply put it up for adoption.
None of the above.take your cat to the Humane Society they will take good care of it and give it a good home.Hope this Helps.Good Luck!
If it's a closed in porch inspect all your screens, walls and ceiling for any holes or spacesThey can squeeze thru holes as small as a half inchSeal as many as you can after the bats leave for the nightIf it's an open porch you could get a couple of fake owls with rotating heads from Walmart for about $15 eachPut them on platforms fairly high up in an obvious place where the bats can see them (bats are NOT blind)Owls are a major bat predator and no bat wants to share its roosting area with an owlI've also heard that the strips of aluminum foil and hanging old cd's from string worksGood luck.
