No not at all. They are too important. It is just for my safety because it landed on me in my sleep. The last man that died from rabies in my county, it was a few years ago, had swatted at a bat that was on his porch. It bit him but he didnt know it. He died a few months later and they did not know why till his audopsy. There are a lot of bats in my area because we have a lot of caves. I have been in caves many times and seen a bat or two, just don't want them landing on me in my sleep.
