In the United States, pest control specialists removed dozens of bats from a University of Georgia dormitory. This was reported by WOKV television.
For the first time, students at the large university located in the city of Athens reported the presence of bats in the building on 14 January. The animals were spotted on the stairs. The university’s press office explained that they had entered the building through several holes in the roof and occupied the attic.
Specialists captured and removed the bats and sealed the holes through which they had entered the building. Nevertheless, on Thursday 25 January the bats reappeared in the stairwells and frightened the students.
‘I’m really worried about it. – stated student Cooper Mattox. – You don’t want one of them to bite you.’ The pest control team found about 30 more animals under the roof rafters. They had started to make their way into the corridors of the dormitory and some had even crawled through the doors into students’ rooms.
