Humane Bat Control Services With Conservation In Mind
Many people consider bats the winged spawn of Satan, and would rather have them
dead than in their backyard flying around eating thousands of mosquitoes; which,
by the way carry more diseases than bats. Bats are very beneficial to our environment,
but it is dangerous to have bats in your home or business.
Bat problems are one of our favorite wildlife issues to deal with and we like to approach the concept
of bat control with humane bat conservation in mind.
Due to the breeding and hibernation habits of bats, completion of the removal process cannot be
done from late spring through mid-August. There are steps that we can take now to make your
living or office areas safer in the meantime. We can also begin proofing, building and eviction
preparations at any time. If you've seen bats in your home take safety actions now, regardless of the time of year.
Bat control can be a complex process affected by many factors including breeding and feeding habits,
roosting, hibernation and migration, and of course, these are affected by what region you live in and what
types of bats you have. There are also
important
safety concerns related to bats inside buildings,
including rabies and other diseases, bite issues and safe handling procedures. To help you understand bat
control as it might relate to your environment, we have prepared an extensive amount of information for
you on such topics as bat exclusion (removal), how to proof living areas, how to conduct a bat
watch,
bat conservation through the use of houses and
boxes,
bats
facts, breeding, feeding habits, and types of bats.
