I've never heard of them, although we had bats on the outside of the house we lived in many years ago. We have a few bats around here too (Andrew found one in a pant-leg once while taking clothes off the wash-line!), but I don't believe we have bat bugs around--thankfully. :)Cora Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889865695652573462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1891305703569906167.post-81768910958940948852010-04-22T11:22:48.672-04:002010-04-22T11:22:48.672-04:00I found out who anonymous is it was Hannah just pu...I found out who anonymous is it was Hannah just pulling her brother's leg! :-)<br />~DavidDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03733992966577117047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1891305703569906167.post-64811260808979677322010-04-22T10:26:01.194-04:002010-04-22T10:26:01.194-04:00No, I did not write the poem.

It brin...I really like this poem did you write it? <br />It brings to mind our bat bug situation. when we moved to a 100 year old farm house from a 10 year old log house we were not familiar with bats living in the attic and the bugs that coexisted with them. A bat bug is very similar to a bed bug the difference is that one likes bat blood the other likes human blood. Well the bats moved out to the barn for the summer and the bugs got hungry so down they came from the attic and into the bedrooms to suck human blood at night! So this is how we found out about bat bugs. The first thing we thought was how do we kill them. We talked to an exterminator and he gave us some sticky traps to monitor them. We asked the previous home owners and they said they did not know about the bat bugs but said there was a lot of other bugs and wasps since it was an old house. And said what they did about it was to let off a bug bomb and go on a vacation for a few days. We found out more about the bat bugs on the web and found they have natural enemies. One is the pseudoscorpion, or false scorpion. the other is an assassin bug. we have both of these bug I just found a pseudoscorpion the other day in my bedroom. So we decided to leave it up to the good bugs and let things come into their proper balance the way God made thing to work.<br />~DavidDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03733992966577117047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1891305703569906167.post-13192738662451160262010-04-22T00:46:53.027-04:002010-04-22T00:46:53.027-04:00THE HORRIBLE COST
