Bat Disable Toggle

There are plenty of us players who can't stand the in-game bats. The way they spawn, the fact they can spawn pretty much "anywhere" and at all light levels, and inside structures is one of the most annoying features of this game. 

I'm requesting a single toggle feature to turn them on/off, so that those of us who can't stand them don't have to deal with them. They frequently fly at your face and can startle you when not expecting them.
