I just looked down to the left of my desk, and there is a bat laying on the ground next to the wall! WTF!? What do I do with it? How do I get it out? How did it get in here? Shit, that thing looks creepy.

first. breathe. how big? if it is small, get a big jar + thick paper to slide under it and capture it. let it outside. try to be quiet and not make any sudden movements.

Grab it with a garbage bag and take it outside.
- it can still bit in defense through that.jaylarson
- Yeah, but it's not that bad. I've gotten bit before.ismith
- Although I guess if it was sick I wouldn't want to be bit... eh well, I still say garbage bag.ismith
- Gloves if you need em.ismith
- i used a bandanna once. worked quite effectively. little bugger screamed like hell though...jaylarson

Its pretty small, about 3" long, and its brown.

Just think "big spider," but bigger. Get it out of your house, but don't hurt it. This happened in our house a couple of times when I was a kid, but they'd usually fly back out of their own volition.
Bats are pretty cool, I think.

Slowly get out your AK-47, cock it back slowlllllyyy. Let it rip, tear that muthafucking bat to bits. Then head down to home depot to buy some wall spackle to fill-in the bullet holes that you left in the wall.

Shit, it crawled under my bag.

yeah, it'll do that. if you put the jar over it, it'll peobably scream in anguish. don't worry. just relax and use a strong piece of cardboard to slide under the jar to coax it over it and into the jar. take outside. pull off jar, leave bat on cardboard outside (preferably in a secluded spot).

First, prepare your grill for medium heat...

is it daylight? either put on gloves and grab it, put it outside or call animal control and they will come get it. I've been through this 3 times.

I'm scared to move the bag now...fuck, they bite?
- don't do anything without gloves. and it's more freaked out than you are.monkeyshine
- are u sure?six
- pretty sure, yes :)monkeyshine
- Its more scared of you...which will cause it too bite you. be most aware of the person that scared.Machuse

cute, right get some thick gloves on and a pint glass they are very slow moving, pop the glass over it and slide a cardboard sheet under it then stare at it for a while and wonder at the timeless beauty of the world and nature, then fucking whang it out the window yo!. They carry rabies by the way so fucking be careful.

Ok, I tried to get it into the box and it sprang up and latched onto my neck and bit me, I grabbed it and through it across the room. There was this huge poof of smoke, and now theres this old guy with a cape sitting on my sofa.
- Just joking...I got it outside. I slid it onto the ground, and it just laid there. The little bugger might be hurt/sick.JackRyan
