(KSL News) Unwelcome residents are causing problems at Lehi High School.

School administrators say bats have decided to make their home under the eaves in the south gymnasium.

On Friday, one class usually held in the gym had to be canceled when a bat got inside.

Health officials say rabies is the main concern with the flying rodents, but a fungus that forms in their feces can also be harmful to those with breathing problems.

The school is currently working with a bat expert to get rid of the problem.
