    That's illegal. Bats are a protected species by law. http://www.batconservationireland.org/irish-bats/protection-law

    Bats are protected by law in the Republic of Ireland under the Wildlife Act 1976 and subsequent amendments. In Northern Ireland, bats are protected under the Wildlife (Northern Ireland) Order 1985. In both jurisdictions there is a similar level of protection; it is an offence to intentionally disturb, injure or kill a bat or disturb its resting place and any work on a roost must be carried out with the advice of the National Parks and Wildlife Service in the Republic, or the Northern Ireland Environment Agency in Northern Ireland.

    Wait and see if they leave at end of breeding season and try to block gaps where they enter. Otherwise just live with them. They don't do any real harm. I think I accidentally injured/ killed some whilst spraying hard to access roof timbers with preservative many years ago and I regret it since.

    I don't think that abts are a protected species though especially if as the OP says they keep marching in. I think OP means ants and endacl's reply does seem to relate to ants.

    Nope. I was referring to abts. Little nastards.
