Bats in my Sims homes

Okay, when did we get the bats flying through our active lots every night? Did this come about with SE because I don't own the Vampires or Paranormal packs which to me seems as if that is where the bats belong. The first time it happened I actually flinched because it was so unexpected. Plus those little pests are actually inside the houses! They aren't outside where they belong; they fly through the walls while coming and going. In my new save, I have two Sims living in one of the apartment buildings and they. of course, live on the second floor. I'm wondering if the bats were meant to fly at that height and the second floor of the apartment buildings are actually in the bats' flight path. Anyone else having this issue? And is it happening in San Myshuno as well?

  • Is Patchy's tree somewhere near the house? There are dark birds flying through a house if it is too near.
  • So far the problem was resolved as soon as I moved one of my Sims out of the first apartment. The second Sim is still residing in one apartment but the bats have stopped flying through the apartments at sundown. And these are the Stone Street apartments, not Stoneridge as I previously stated. I have had Sims living there before I bought SE and never had bats do that. I don't own the Vampire pack so that is why I believe it is a glitch that came with SE since there is a cave with bats on the mountain. Thanks so much for all the replies. :)
  • Do you have the Slice of Life mod, by any chance? I think this was added (not sure why!) some time ago.
  • I've been using SOL for over a year and never had this glitch before I added SE. The timing is why I believe the bat problem at the apartment buildings is being triggered by that pack. I had several Sims live in both apartment buildings last summer and never saw a single bat, or group of bats, fly right through the walls at sunset. But as soon as I had one of the residents move out, the bats never appeared again. So I have no clue what the real cause of it was.
