Bat Removal and Exclusion
Bats tend to enter the upper areas of your home’s roofline and only need a small opening in order to enter a structure. Most homes are extremely vulnerable to colonizing bats, and this is where our years of experience in Fairfield county, and attention to detail make all the difference. The process by which bats are permanently removed from a structure involves careful inspection of the entire skin of the house. As part of the inspection process, we identify areas which are accessible to bats and make a plan to seal them permanently.
Points of entry where bats are currently entering your home will first be outfitted with a temporary exclusion device. This humane device will allow the animals to exit the structure and prevent them from re-entering. As bats live 20-25 years they will continually return (multiple times during their lifetime) to their old roosting site and explore possible points of entry. This is why it is imperative that every aspect of sealing a structure is completed in a professional manner with materials which are compatible to the home’s exterior and allow for normal venting. Once the bats have been excluded, we will follow up and complete the sealing process, ensuring that the bats find a new place to live.
