How to Get Rid of Bats

Bats generate a natural fear among many people. They’re mysterious creatures that can be unnerving when they are in your Michigan home. As an experienced bat removal professionals, we can quickly determine where bats are entering your home and formulate a humane strategy for their removal.

The goal for complete bat removal is to provide a one-way exit for the bats, which may require working high above the ground on a two-story ladder, or navigating steeply pitched rooflines. One-way bat exclusion doors are vital to avoid completely sealing the home and trapping bats inside. Trapped bats become desperate and will seek alternative routes outside, possibly landing them right in your living room.

Successful bat removal requires the skills of a properly trained professional to ensure that they don’t get back inside through a different location. Complete sealing of a home's roofline and vents is required to prevent entry.

Due to the complexity of performing proper bat removal, many people find that exclusions are outside the scope of a do-it-yourself project. Safety is a prime reason to consider a professional. All of our trucks are stocked with equipment such as ladder hooks, pivots, harnesses and lifelines, which improve safety.
