Bats in Your Home or Business

Scratching Noises in Walls or Ceilings

Do you have bats in your home or business? We often get calls for mice scratching on the walls or ceiling, but it almost always turns out to be bats. Bats tend to move every few weeks during hibernation to regulate their body temperatures. While crawling, bats will make a scratching sound in the walls or on the ceilings. Our experts will remove bats from your home or business.

Bats tend to use openings 1/2″ or more prominent, so it is essential to seal everything in the home. We will inspect the ridge vents, gable vents, eves, chimneys, drip edge, fascia boards, under soffits, and any other gap that allows them access into the home or building.

Getting Rid of Bats

Bats are protected animals that can not be controlled like other pests. We use a custom one-way door that allows these flying pests to leave your home but not come back in. Then we seal up all the small gaps where they may reenter the building.

After waiting a few weeks and they all leave, we seal up the central openings to prevent them from coming back into the home or building. It may also be necessary to clean and disinfect areas where bats were roosting since there are many dangers, such as Rabies or Histoplasmosis, a life-threatening disease acquired by breathing fungal spores from bat droppings.
