SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – MARCH 20: A Grey-Headed Flying Fox flies through the air at the Royal Botanic Gardens March 20, 2008 in Sydney, Australia. Flying Foxes, or fruit bats, have taken up permanent roosts in the Botanic Gardens, causing major damage to heritage trees in the park. The Royal Botanic Gardens has begun a program to deter the flying foxes from roosting, as there are now some 11,000 bats roosting in the park. Deterents include noise to disturb sleep patterns, plastic bags attached to branches of trees, strobe lights, odours, and the playing of taped distress calls. (Photo by Ian Waldie/Getty Images)

Champion moved into the Riverside Palms on June 1, 2019, so he's only been there a week. Champion has a young son that lives with him, so he says, for safety reasons, he can't have bats all around. The Riverside Palms says it's nesting season from April 15th to August 15th protecting the bats so they can't call in critter control until halfway through August. The Riverside Palms offered to let him out of his lease but won't give him back the money he has already paid them to move in.
