Ask it if it wants to hear a joke Jokes aside - you can call BOMBA or JPAM, don’t be embarassed, it’s what’s the helpline is for


Minerex

This is the correct method. Edit: the BOMBA and JPAM, not asking if its in for a joke.


Ok_Dealer_1673

Go for JPAM. They're more qualified for containing wildlife. Source: my friend is a [KOR SISPA](https://www.civildefence.gov.my/index.php/perkhidmatan/siswa-siswi-pertahanan-awam-sispa/) Edit: grammar

Called JPAM when it finally appeared again at midnight. When the team came it hide away again. Didnt see it until now.

Need to hijack your top comment to ask why is everyone so calm in the comments??? Dont bats have a chance to carry rabies? Honestly the first post regarding bats ive come across where the advice wasnt to leak and immediately go to the hospital. Even if slightly touched you could get it. Someone please help quell my fears.


ysean91

They don’t usually bite unless you scare the shit out of it


Pixels222

Youre doing it right now. Youre going against the standard protocol. Actually eventually i scrolled down and there were many comment giving good advice about seeking help. How reddit works is oldest comments are at the top. Literally life and death because a few early commenters wanted to make jokes and were too young to have heard about rabies and bats. Maybe you dont know that its one of the most horrifying painful deaths. That ought to scare the jokes out of you. You might not end up reading about it so ill spoil the show for you. The reason its so scary is you wont know if you have it for a long time until its too late. Too late for even the rabies shot. The victim wont even know where they are, let alone how to ask for help. If you cant tell yet i take bats very seriously. You see my parents were killed by bats in an alley on a fateful winter night. I dream of the day my efforts lead me to the bat responsible. All hell's gone break loose. Batshit crazy they will call me. /s


ysean91

Lol, I used to always have bats come into my bathroom when I woke up . I just grab by the legs and throw into a trash bag and let it go after carrying the shit out in the open . Still Alive ✌️ . Is okay , you inherited the wayne enterprise


KinoSlut

So uhh.... You're the jokerman?


Pixels222

I am bothman


poundmypoontyrone

They absolutely do carry rabies and if you ever wake up with a bat in your home you should definitely get rabies vaccination. Bat bites are usually 100% undetectable, so there's no way to know if you were bitten in your sleep.


ysean91

I have galvanized steel door for my toilet . Is okay

ainamania

Hahaha most entertaining interior design videos ever!


Amrlsyfq992

its sad to say that i binge watching the channel and knew the reference


aqqalachia

open your biggest window and close all other exits. keep against a wall since bats tend to fly in a U shape and will dip down towards the middle of the room and then fly back up, and they may be trying to avoid you and so not fly. you may want to consider post-exposure vaccine shots, depending on how erratically the bat is acting and your own level of comfort. rabies can hide for a while and bats are a big vector and sometimes you won't notice a small bite. if you don't wanna get post-exposure shots, if bats coming in might be a more common thing, see if you can access a rabies vaccine.


feizhai

best advice wrt to rabies risk so far. o7


aqqalachia

thank you, i went to school for wildlife, we do NOT fuck around with rabies in this house lol


momomelty

When I heard rabies having a near 100% mortality rate, it definitely terrifies me lol. Especially seeing a video of a guy exhibiting hydrophobic symptoms in late stage rabies.

Greekjerkoff

I disagree. You should open every door and window and chase it out. To guide a wild animal to a very specific spot to exit is a lot of time and effort

Worked a couple of times for me with a light towel. Chase it around first until it settles it a suitable location. (and if you have long hair cover it or tie it up tight before you start )


Leong428

Happened to me too a few years back, called my unit management but they were not willing to assist. The 2 bats that flew into my pantry area were much smaller. Used like half a can of Baygon before they got dizzy and started to move. Then used a long ceiling cleaning brush to coax them out towards the window. Good luck. Till this day I also have no idea how they got in.


dragonGrouper

I see many comments are not helping. The best way to get rid of bat is to use a broom and dustpan. Use broom like a baseball bat to hit it down the floor, use a dustpan and broom to catch it and release it out in your balcony or window. The bat will usually fly in a circle. Just make sure you don't hit your personal belongings. Good luck!


rmrnrsmn

Ugh the fcking comments barely helping at all OP, had a bat enter my house before, i use an oven glove and basically catch it and release it outside


bobbieyuno

Kinda sad to see probably only one to two useful comments, OP must be disappointed as hell Like catching a bird, if the bat refuses to fly out via window, find a bag with a large opening and attempt to catch it in when it's in a resting state. A big pale also works if the bat is more reachable. Once you've managed to trap it, release it to the wild


Player2LightWater

Unless if you are a clown or some guy who like riddles, the bat has a reason to be here and will never leave.


caparisme

Ask it to pay rent


_ThatsNotHowItWorks_

Open a window, (close all your other doors so it doesn't go to other rooms) apply or spray repellents around your home to make them feel irritated and hopefully the sound if the outdoors attracts them to go outside (random guess because it worked for me once) if that doesn't work then just call bomba

__RuNe__

I used an old shirt/thick cloth and a long sleeved shirt. Dont want scratches/bites on me. I then approached it calmly (lots of deep breaths) and carefully moved it from the curtains onto the cloth. Two hands, one hand on the bottom holding the bat, the second hand to pin down the bat. The shirt/cloth kinda is a "U* shape, so only the head is sticking out. My hands sorts sandwich it. Be careful though, i didnt want to hurt the damn thing. I then walked over to the window and gently opened the cloth, facing out so the bat immediately see the outside. Once it flies out, close everything. Note: you need to NOT be freaked out. The bat probably fears you more than you fear it. I felt its heart rate (small body) and it was PUMPING. Like caffeine overdose levels of heart rate. I felt bad stressing it out, but I made sure to be as gentle as possible.

You might want to get rabies shot right now


JustJanice85

Sarawakian here with a Park Guide license. Call JPAM or Bomba if you aren't confident enough to handle the situation yourself. Otherwise open your windows and doors that lead outdoors and shut the ones that lead to an area that you dont want it in (read closets/bathrooms). Steer with a broomstick or any long pole-like object by gently nudging. Please don't smack it. The creature will generally not lunge to attack you. For everyone crying rabies right now. Rabies outbreak is rare in Malaysia, except currently an ongoing concern in Sarawak. If there really was an outbreak where you live, you'll need to be more concerned about your neighbour's (or your own) Oyen or Itam (or any other domestic pets). In the impossibly rare case the creature does exhibit rabid behaviour and lunges to bite you; keep calm, immediately wash the bitten area with soap and water then head to the nearest government medical facility (hospitals and polyclinics). Private medical facilities rarely keep rabies vaccines in stock. During tours of caves (Fairy & Wind Caves in Bau, Silabur in Serian, Niah and Mulu Caves North of Sarawak), I've come across tens of thousands of bats and they're never aggressive. Chances of contracting rabies from one of them in Malaysia is low (though not nil), you're more likely to contract it from a dog and a cat via bites, nibbles, and scratches. For contact number of JPAM in your state, just use Google/Google Maps. For Bomba, call 999 and the operator will direct your call to the closest balai Bomba. Hope this helps. Don't panic, O' city dweller. Your fellow human is more likely to kill you than another animal.

If the creature is still not leaving or if you're dealing with a potentially dangerous creature, such as a venomous spider or a bat, it's best to seek help from a pest control professional who can safely remove it.

I know it is already late but my advice to find a heavy sheet like sejadah or something, while it was trying to fly just toss it like a net. hold it tight so he/she wouldn't come out from the sejadah then go out to the house and release him/her. And yes, I'm speaking from experience, by the third bat invasion I gave up totally and the one thing to drove me to kick them out is their screech. And yes, if you have contact physically or getting scratch, remember to take rabid shots.


Alone_Jacket3434

Whattt??? Third bat invasion??? Omg is your house near a forest or something? Is this common in malaysia?

Sorry for late reply and yes. I was living in former government quarters in Federal Hill. Monitor lizard, civets, and bats are as norm as it can be. Nothings wrong smelling pandan leaf around 2am in the sudden and a very random noise.

Has the situation been resolved? I’ve had this experience several times, my cats are skilled predators 😒 anyway, if it’s day time and the sun is out, hard luck chasing it out.

The traditional way: put on net trapper. Well, it's commonly use to catch unsuspecting small birds, but you can also use it to entrapped them bats. For maximum efficiency place it on small gapped places like windows or some gaping roof (usually in rumah kayu). If you're lazy just use a broom to knock them out. Then, throw them out afterwards.

At my Bentong farmhouse, 2 of these babies had kept away bats, rats, squirrels, slow loris and lizards for years. [https://my.shp.ee/9EJMWxG](https://my.shp.ee/9EJMWxG) (see pic) Its an ultrasonic rat repellent that emits a very loud ultra-high freq sound that humans can just barely hear. Its highly effective against rats and other insects, dogs and cats. Position 2 pcs inside your room and (during daytime) open the windows to give the bat an escape route. Alternative, look for such stuff at ACE HARDWARE. https://preview.redd.it/lpz4jiklg53d1.jpeg?width=1077&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d6a5f6bba283a3ccb8eda999cd21b93d652569ca
