Yes, those psychologists definitely aren't cheap! :lol:
When in USAF, part of the old fire station was the backup air traffic control tower, but had been shut down for many years. We'd often end up with a bat getting into the tower, then flying down into the Communications Center! Couldn't get any help from anyone, so the base rec hall gave us a couple of old badminton rackets and we set up a scoreboard for Bat Kills. Then one day we had a surprise inspection and the officers wanted to know what that meant. I told them. Next thing we knew, we had a new ceiling installed!
Here's the thing - bats are good! They can cause a mess and they can carry diseases, but they are very beneficial for the environment. So once you know the kiddie bats can fly, might not be a bad idea to set up a bright light in their area while they're out at night. Some noise from a radio might also work. However, unless you find out how they're getting in, you will continue to have problems.
As Stephen suggested, try to find out where they are getting in and, when the kiddies are flying, get that light on to keep them out and seal the hole. Also look for any other potential holes they might get into. PLEASE, try not to seal them inside! You will end up needing a racket and scoreboard of your own, as these things are simply flying mice and can get through very tiny spaces!
