800-714-8727 Bat Control, Removal, Trapping in Wisconsin, Mississippi, Saint Louis Mo., Florida, New York
We here at Anytime Animal Control do not recomend that you atempt to exclude bats without professional help. It takes a trained eye and a seasioned professional who knows where the bats are entering a building. Most bats can enter through a space where you can fit a book of matches. And a building must be physicaly inspected inch by inch. We here do not trap bats unless research calls for it. Instead, we evict them using exclusion programs and then bat proof the home. Needed repairs are done to the structure at that point and a guano removal process is schedualed.
Typical homes with bats are 75 plus years old. Wood starts to rot and shrink, and bats find the way in to the new bat hotel. Anywhere from one bat to thousnds can be inside.It all depends on the species and gender. So home maintainance will help you avoid needing a bat removal specialist.
