Bats

The female bat will sometimes carry the youngster on her belly. Female bats are able to fly with her pup attached to her.


Females will feed their little ones until they are strong enough to fly out in August to hunt. Adult bats can eat up to half their body weight in one night (mosquitos, bugs, small flies).


Bats are great to keep the mosquito population down. Unfortunately, bats also defecate large amounts of guanos, (bat feces/Guano) because of the high quantity of insects they eat. Guano is extremely toxic.


Bats can squeeze into very small spaces. A professional wildlife technician will be able to find their entry point and take the necessary steps to eradicate them.

How do we get bats removed?

Bats are very difficult to remove due to their ability to squeeze their small body through very tiny cracks.


A lot of preventive work is required, at which point a special door is placed and even some netting for severe trouble spots. 


We can use ultrasound as well to help flush them out. We use a special paste that bats are attracted to in order to make them exit much faster.


Bat infestations often are a more complex problem and can take a longer time to solve. After 30 days, we will return to have the special door removed and to close the entry point.


During baby season, a different approach may be used where  we will not set a slide door for bats( End of June to end of August). Female bats need to be able to return to the offspring to feed them. After baby season, we will return to set a special trap door ensuring a more humane solution.
