A bat will crawl into tiny spaces around the roof soffites to look for shelter. Once safe inside, they will continue crawling looking for insects.
They can consume half their weight in insects a day.
Once in a while they will accidentally crawl in the house and it's a terrorized little animal you will see. I catch them with towels as their tiny claws catch in the fabric. Once folded in they feel safer and will not move.
The trick is to open all windows in a room and herd the tiny thing towards that room. If it lands, just gently put the towel on it. I like to catch them in my hands and get fascinated easily by the beauty of their details and their strangeness.
