If you really want to get rid of it I would continue with the harrashment technique (hosing etc). Is the Bat on the porch or is he nesting inside a void on the porch. If he is just resting he/she will move along shortly. The only time you will have a permanent resident is once they build a nest to rear their young. That being said if he decides to stay the summer he will fly off in October to over winter in the big bat cave outside Bragg Creek.
He should be gone shortly, give it a week and continue to hose him down.
