Did you know that there are well over 40 bat species in the United State? All are capable of spreading disease and also host what we know as ectoparasites which include fleas, flies, ticks, and mites. All of which can harm the health of people humans and their pets.
Bat droppings can provide a home for fungus and infection in humans can occur when people inhale the spores and their urine can cause a very strong odor. We often find droppings that lead to staining in ceilings and walls and need to provide cleanup services to sanitize affected areas.
Because of the hazardous nature of bat droppings or guano, and since bats are common carriers of the rabies virus, property owners or property managers are strongly advised to not attempt to remove bat infestations or clean guano accumulations on their own. Contact our team for proper disposal practices.

How to Remove Bats
The most effective bat removal from a building technique is through the process of exclusion. Bat exclusion means that we locate any openings bats are currently using to gain access into the building and install one-way doors on those openings, enabling the bats to leave the building, but not return.
Upon installation of the one-way door, technicians will identify and seal all possible re-entry points (the bats may look for another way in and only need an opening about the size of a dime).
Most of the time, one-way doors are left on for one 1-2 weeks, however, bats should be gone within 24-48 hours, unless they are hibernating in winter months.
When technicians return, they remove the one-way doors and seal the opening or openings to prevent future bat entry into your home.
If you are concerned about a bat problem, contact us for bat removal and cleanup services today. REMEMBER our home inspections are always FREE.
