Thousands of bats have been dive-bombing families around a popular Brevard County restaurant, according to a WKMG-TV Local 6 News report.

Officials said the bats have infested the attic of the Back Bay restaurant in Palm Bay.

"They scare the customers basically and also they create quite a mess," Back Bay restaurant owner John Maltese said.

"It is just kind of spooky, you know," a resident told Local 6's Jessica D'Onofrio said.

Monday, a wildlife specialist was called to help control the infestation. Chris Gangraw plugged a space in the building's roof where the bats are getting in.

"Earlier today we hung some check-valves or one-way netting systems to let the bats out but they can't get back in," Gangraw said. "There are probably hundreds coming out at a time."
