Australians going batty

Its a plague.

An Australian tourist hotspot has been declared a disaster area after being invaded by more than 100,000 bats.

The New South Wales town of Batemans Bay has been hit by a wave of dirt and destruction.

The noisy bats, commonly known as flying foxes, have caused power outages, kept tourists away and hit property prices in the south coast town.

“Well, I think it’s a natural disaster. It’s a disaster for residents, it’s a disaster for the flora and fauna,” said local MP Andrew Constance.
