Do I Have Bats?
Before deciding if you need bat removal services, you will first need to determine if you have a bat problem. You can usually identify bats by the following:
- A pile of droppings in one corner of your attic
- Piles of dropping in attic’s insulation
- Squeaking or scratching noises throughout the night
- Strong smells of urine or ammonia
If you hear movement in your attic, it is likely that there is some type of rodent living in it. Bats are just one of a few types of rodents that will turn your attic or garage into a home. Bats are an important part of the ecosystem but that doesn’t mean that you have to welcome them into your home. When a bat turns your attic or garage into a home, it may breed and produce even more bats. Before long, the problem has gotten out of control and it costs you thousands of dollars to remove them and repair damages.
How to Get Rid of Bats
Getting rid of bats often requires the services of a professional. The good news is that while you have bats in your attic, it is unlikely that you also have any annoying pests. That is because bats feed on pests and are an important part of controlling insect populations. But, once you get rid of the bats, then you may need to pay close attention to see what types of pests enter your attic. Some of these may cause expensive damage, chewing into the walls and wreaking havoc on your property.
What Is a Bat Inspection?
One of the services that Solidified Pest Control offers is a bat inspection service. This occurs when a homeowner reaches out to us and believes they may have a bat problem. A bat inspection is much more than looking for bats. It also involves finding the bat’s entrance and exit points, which may or may not be the same. Bats will often find their way indoors in search of heat through missing shingles or broken wood. They are very good at identifying ways to get into your house.
Even once you find these entrance points, we need to determine how to get them out. Because bats are important to the ecosystem, we don’t want to poison them. We need to time the removal process right so that we remove them before then sealing off the entrance points. Once we have closed off their way of getting in, then we need to repair any damage they may have caused. Bats are notorious for leaving behind damage. Repairing this damage is just as important as getting rid of the bats. Otherwise, you risk another bat infestation or you invite other pests or rodents to come in.
We often use a type of netting that allows bats to leave, but not re-enter. Bats also love older houses, which can make removing them even more expensive when you consider the cost of repairs. This is why it can be a good idea to check for bats when moving in. Additionally, you also might routinely check for bats as the temperatures get colder.
