Best of luck with them. We discovered the flyers when a cat got ahold of one at our shop. She jumped on mike and would not get off. We were scared at first untill we saw what she looked like. We saved her but she died 24 hrs later.
I think if you let them go and keep an eye out for them you would be ok. Make sure they have food and water. But it seems like you know that.LOL
