@Buzz, what was the oil approach? Copious amount of oil in one setting or multiple treatments over many days/nights?

I oiled the whole bat (it is largely new and only had a coat of bat wax on) then 24 hours later I oiled the stained area only. I then left it to dry for 48 hours.

I put about teaspoon maybe a bit more on first time an about half that the second time, wiping off any residue.

If that's anything like the few butterfly I've been netting with, it'll be a gun. Utter bargain at that price too.
