Answer 6

Bats are protected in the UK and you are not allowed to disturb their habitat, kill them or catch them. Call someone like the RSPCA or a local Bat trust/society. They will be able to move them for you for free i would expect. please dont smoke them out or kill them, they are lovely little creatures and all to rare nowadays.
