Can you really call a cave bat-infested if that's where the bats live? I don't refer to my apartment as being infested by humans. But maybe we can say that this planet is infested by us.

Yeah bat infested cave is offensive to bats. They did nothing wrong, that's their home. More like dog infested cave

Saving the bats from dog infestation.

I feel like calling something an infestation is a hilarious way of setting a narrative for something. Like someone opens a cupboard in your house and your like "Careful!! Snack infestation in there, can't seem to get rid of em"

I infest my cat's house, in which he lives with my wife

Rats live in rat infested buildings

Aye, but you see, that usage of "Infest" is correct. I don't want wild rats living in my house, therefore its an infestation. Wild bats living in a cave, well, that's where they live.

Yes, well I'm basically god to these creatures, so I can define where they live.

Look at the eyes, that's a vampire dog now. Just wait till the drained cat corpses start showing up.
