Ever wonder how to seal up those pesky cracks between the window sill and the window pane? Well, if you're renting, the lazy-ass landlord should really have fixed it by now. (I mean, seriously, how embarrassing to hand over keys to a place with dirty white walls that you have to paint yourself and windows in such decrepit condition, not to mention the glaring lack of ceiling fans that the other apartments are blessed with during this gum-meltingly hot weather.) But, if he doesn't, here's what you do, in order to keep theoretical bats - out:

-Take some packing tape, which is meant for packing cardboard boxes.
-Tear uneven strips of packing tape off and slop them right in there over the crack.
-Tear off extra leaves from the Aloe plant in your bedroom.

Viola! No bats yet! Pretty sure bats hate Aloe plants, right?

You're welcome for this handy tip.
