Fall Bat Control Service

 

Can you get rid of bats in the Fall season? is Fall a good time of the year for bat removal or exclusion repairs?

Fall months are an ideal time to remove bats from your home.  The young pups are in full flight and are not in risk of being trapped in their roost after exclusion of the adult bats.  The nights are cold, but still warm enough for bats to leave their roost for food.   Bats can be active in your home even until early December, depending on the temperature outside.  However, once the temperature drops below 40 degrees, the food sources die off and the bats will begin to hibernate or relocate.  They will usually leave their roost in the rafters and find a new dwelling underneath the insulation. Bats prefer to hibernate in attics because of the protective temperature from the outdoor elements.  Ignoring noises or other tell tale signs of nuisance animals can lead to severe attic damage if left for an entire hibernation period.
