Just seen this on the news. What states require testing of bats found in living areas where people were sleeping? Oregon does not, however with my company we require it. Just a company policy I thought made sense after hearing some states do require it.

If the customer wakes up with the bat flying in their room the bat needs to be tested, or they can get the shots.

Or BOTH!!!

I'm just wondering what states require this? I thought I heard some do. Laws and common cense don't always mix.

I believe in my state it is not "required" but highly recommended. It's the first thing I say to the customer in such a situation.

Same here.

Recommend in wa if exposed to start shots is the bat is not captured for testing

Testing is not required

Just had a family from canada have the issue,,,,,, they had to do the shots in America because Canada did not honor there claim ,,,,$$$$$

thats crazy to hear... always hear about canada and their "free" healthcare. My 4 rabies shots cost $16,000!!!

The VA will give veterans the shots for free. I learned that when one of our guys felt the best way to let a raccoon go was to turn the cage over and shake.

I am guessing it was because it happened while they were in a foreign country
Canadians need to purchase a supplemental insurance policy to be covered.

This includes the PRE-EXPOSURE shot's.

Any local ER gives the shots. Ask me how I know

hmm I have just caught them when they get in and let them go outside. Had a few get in over the years and fly around the house. I just grabbed a towel flipped it up they get snaged in it and I took then outside and let them go. Never even thought about them being any threat.
