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.

I cant resist uttering:

HOLY SHIT

[FallingEdge]

Guano bowls! Collect the whole set...

Bumblebee tuna? Bumblebee tuna! Ace Ventura, Pet Detective! How are you this afternoon? Excuse me... Your balls are showing... Bumblebee tuna!

And you must be the monopoly guy. Hey... thanks for the free parking.

SHIKAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[Alzarath]

Ace Ventura would have a seizure.

Edit: Damn you, FallingEdge.

[Hokuto Shingo]

I wonder how many people won't get the reference.

I wonder how many people won't get the reference.

Well, if you can't imagine someone NOT getting the reference, does that mean we're (I'm) getting old? :(

Do you realize that movie is 13 years old? Goddamn.

[ShinAkumax]

Glad I'm not cleaning that.

[Alzarath]

Ace: "I'll have you know, that I have the reflexes of a cat, and the speed of a mongoose. Throw it... I, dare ya!!"

Fighter: "GAHHHHHHHH!" *throws spear, hits ace (who is standing still..) in the leg*

Ace: :wtf: :shake: :crybaby:

Tribesmen: :rofl:

[MrQuotes]

ITS IN THE BONE!

Do you realize that movie is 13 years old? Goddamn.

My point exactly...we're old school. When Ace Ventura is a classic movie and Fresh Prince is on Nick at Nite then I feel like a geezer.

For my Canadian compadres: Remember the zone? With PJ Phil and Znit?

It makes me a little bit sad to think about the old days.

[Ferdinandz]

Oh Fuck!

[Fadedsun303]

Guano bowls! Collect the whole set...

Bumblebee tuna? Bumblebee tuna! Ace Ventura, Pet Detective! How are you this afternoon? Excuse me... Your balls are showing... Bumblebee tuna!

And you must be the monopoly guy. Hey... thanks for the free parking.

SHIKAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

:rofl: You beat me to it. I was going to say the "collect the whole set" line too.

Don't forget the rhino scene.

this couple must've been driven batshit by all that guano

[Jida]

Who the fuck forgets about a goddamn family of flying rats?

[Doc Holliday]

It's funny. I'm reading this thread and eating Taco Bell at the same time. And I don't give a shit.

but taco bell did, right in your chalupa.

[Doc Holliday]

but taco bell did, right in your chalupa.

Which is why I'll be doing it. In about an hour.

[Logos]

Beat me to that one. :sweat:

But yeah, sucks for them. At the same time, though, how the hell do you forget about the fact that you have a bat infestation in your attic?

[Hooby]

Forgetting is the excuse procastinators use when they accidently put something off until past the "Uhoh we're fucked" stage.

[J-ride]

Which is why I'll be doing it. In about an hour.

Seriously, Taco Bell is possibly the greatest laxative in the history of mankind. Why people pay money for those from pharmacies baffles me, just go get your lunch at the border and you will be cleaned out 45 min - 1 hour later GUARANTEED!!

[white shadow]

Actually they don't realize that their sitting on a goldmine...

[Aztec Warrior]

You want that dookey so bad, you can taste it!

[Q.C.PUNCH]

they're up shits creek without a paddle. there's gonna be some e.coli in that shit too.

[quiche]

WTF? They live in a place called BALLSTON SPA? How did they NOT expect this sort of thing?

...seriously.

[DJTPC]

Seems too much for such small things.

Sounds more like Batman lived near and he went there to take a dump when he got out of bars drunk. For a year.

[BlakHayato]

The couple was knee deep... 25,000? Their money went to waste.

Damn, I never thought about it that way. For reals, that's like making me feel hella old right now. :sad:

[Dreaded Fist]

They.....have......GUANO!

[Alzarath]
