Hi there
Looking for some advice. For the last 3 nights we have found a bat flying around our bedroom (we live in a 1st floor flat in the middle of the Ladder, our bedroom is in the loft conversion). We saw the bat fly out through the window each time and checked the house thoroughly so its very unlikely to still be there during the day.
After the second time it happened, we ensured to close all the windows in our bedroom, but the bat managed to get in again (we found one tiny window open downstairs that we forgot about).
I understand its common for young bats to accidentally enter houses in the summertime but as this is a recurring event, I was wondering if there is any advice on how to prevent this and possibly find if there is a bat roost somewhere in the building? We have three fireplaces (which we dont use) which are sealed so are at a loss as to where and why the bat keeps entering.
Thanks!

You're not far from me and we can almost always see bats out at the top of Hewitt Road at dusk. I think one of my neighbours has a roost. I think this is the time of year young bats first start hunting for themselves. Perhaps you're getting this year's fledglings during their first hunting trips but not yet skilled enough to avoid entering houses.
