From what I understand, the problem of rabid bats is grossly overstated.  I
have read several articles on the subject in the past few years, and all came
to the same conclusion.  I agree with the previous poster that rabies is a far
greater problem in woodchuck, fox, skunk and racoon, as well as wild dog and
cat populations.
