Found guano along the outside brick wall. No sign of them in the attic, appears they’re in the eaves at a gable. I’m aware I can’t kill them but can they be flushed out with raid bombs?

Call a bug man, they’ll have the best advice.

Place I used to live that had that problem they would get up between the brick and the veneer and get up into the attic/eaves. A good pest control or bat removal company will close up all the exits they can find but one and then put this gutter down spout looking device that will only let the bats out and not back in.

Had a friend who had a bat issue. Get ready. Bat guy charged 5k to seal up all of the tiny holes they can squeeze through. Told her the bats will just move to the closest place that could house them. (Neighbors)

They came back 8m later. Bat guy had a 6m warranty.

My Dads house had hundreds of them get in the attic.
I sprayed that rat / squirrel spray you mix everywhere. They left.
They were between the bricks and the sheeting behind it.

Find all entrance holes. It is said they can get in as little as a 1/4 inch gap. Seal all but the most likely entrance.

Buy a bat funnel on Amazon for about 20 bucks. Looks similar to that attachment you use to get in cracks on a vacuum.

Put funnel on opening so they have to leave through device.

Wait till dusk, grab a chair and a beer and watch them leave. Leave it up for a few days to make sure they all get out. Remove funnel and seal opening
