They aren’t likely to carry rabies, however if you find one away from the rest of its group it may have rabies. They typically stay in groups but if one gets rabies they shun it from the pack.

Eh depends on particular species. Not all bats stay in a big pile lots spread out for hunting bugs which could easily lead to it winding up in a pool alone. Still would keep several layers of towel between me and it for safety and contact the local wildlife rescue. They can quarantine it.
