“I don’t think you can get rabies by eating the virus.”

No, but if the virus survives the hot water it can be absorbed through any lesions on the gums. In any case, I sure wouldn’t want to take the chance.

Regular, de-caf...or do we just wing it?

"most coffee makers I've seen are pretty bat-proof. "

Did Underwriters Laboratories test for this?

I yield to those more knowledgeable about bats than I.

Did Underwriters Laboratories test for this?

I have not yet actually seen the special UL "bp" (bat-proof) endorsement on any coffee makers. (I just made that up.)

But I am sure some consumer group is going to demand it sooner or later. "Did you know that people, mostly women, children, and minorities, are dying everyday due to bats in coffee makers? We demand that something be done to prevent this senseless loss of lives. Even more important are the poor bats that are dying a senseless and excruciating death in 5000 degree water!"

Does Starbucks offer bat flavor coffee?

There is the UL approved Bat Bomb.

Ive been trying for years to get bats out of my attic. No one can figure out where they are getting in.
