Bats will make their home anywhere they can that will provide shelter and where they can colonize. Unfortunately, that can be in your home or place of business. Bats are a protected species therefore bat removal must only be done by licensed professionals.
Bats only need a small crack to get in to an attic, wall or basement.
Bats in shared living spaces with humans can cause significant health risks as well as damage to the structure. Bats have been known to carry rabies and should never be handled by an untrained person. Bats are actually protected year round in Florida, and should not be handled or killed, especially during maternity season. April 15-August 15.
Bat guano, poop, can also build up and emit spores that can cause serious respiratory infections. If you have seen bats flying in and out near your home or business or are hearing strange sounds, chattering, squalling, scratching, we would be happy to come out and do an inspection.
Our methods are to identify the entry points and create barriers (exclusion) so they move themselves elsewhere. Our bat removal services include cleaning out the entire space of guano and disinfecting areas they roosted in.
Here you can see bats taking flight at dusk coming out of the attic of this home.
Once the bats are out, the the space is cleaned out of the bat guano, yes folks that is bat poop. Afterwards the attic is sealed, a process called exclusion, to prevent re-entry. The bats then relocate themselves elsewhere
Again, if you see, hear or suspect you have bats or something crawling in your home or business. we are happy to conduct an inspection at no cost. We will also be happy to schedule your bat removal service during the off-peak season.
