Re: [Texascavers] Buyer beware!

They should have simply called on Jim Kennedy to have a good ole guano
gathering!
SHEEZ!  Some people go to some trouble to have the stuff.
(ok, ok... much I may not understand... is guano not 'the good stuff' if it
hasn't been post processed by demisted beetles??)

I bet all that guano made for great attic insulation!

***3,500 lbs. of bat guano found in attic*
  Thu May 3, 9:45 AM ET


 BALLSTON SPA, N.Y. - An upstate New York couple didn't think a few bats
in the attic were much of a problem when they were buying a house last
summer.

 Months later, they found out how wrong they were when they discovered
more than a ton and a half of bat droppings up there.

Nick LaBoda and Jenna Caputo say a home inspector informed them about the
bats. They called an exterminator, who told them to wait a while before
removing the bats because the babies were too young to fly.

Then they forgot about the bats until they smelled a foul odor in January.
When they checked the attic, they found dead bats and piles of guano.
An exterminator says hundreds of bats had been living in the attic,
leaving behind 3,500 pounds of droppings.

It cost $25,000 to clean up the mess, and the couple's insurance company
wouldn't cover it. They're fighting it out in court.
