Valrico Bat Removal

Bats are nocturnal creatures, so you’ll likely spot them flying around your home at night. It can be quite disturbing to see bats flying around your home if they are living in your attic, walls or leaving droppings. They can also transmit diseases such as bat guano, which could cause serious health problems to people.

Once you’ve confirmed a bat problem, it’s time to call for help from experts; if left untreated, these animals can cause serious damage and pose health risks. Bats may look harmless, but their guano is full of dangerous spores that can lead to histoplasmosis – an infection that often leads to flu-like symptoms at first with more severe respiratory issues later on down the road. AAAC Wildlife Removal can help you with any questions or concerns about bat control.

Bat Extermination vs. Bat Removal

Knowing that you have bats in your home can be unnerving and your first thought might be to call pest control and have them exterminated. Bats, however, cannot be treated like termites or ants, they are protected and cannot be simply exterminated.

Exclusion is a method of removing bats. We first find out where the bats are getting inside and seal those openings shut. Once they have no way of entering, a one-way door will be installed. This allows them to leave, but they cannot re-enter. This process is not for the faint of heart so It is best to contact a professional who has experience in this field.

Bat Damage

Bat guano and urine can damage the insulation and structure of the house. Bat waste is acidic and will rot wood and drywall. It can also stain ceilings and walls, as well as leave behind an unpleasant odor that can be difficult to get rid of with regular cleaning products.

In addition, their droppings make a perfect home to dangerous mold spores that can cause serious health issues for you and your family. It is important that bats be removed as soon as possible to avoid health risks and damage to your home.

Bat Exclusion

The best way of removing bats from your home is to seal off all possible entrances. This process is called exclusion. This is accomplished by sealing any holes or openings larger than one inch. The most common entry points for bats include attics, chimneys, and roofs. After the exclusion process, you can use a one-way door to allow the bats to leave but not get back in. Once gone, you must seal all potential entrance points permanently to prevent other animals from entering your home.

These entry points could include vents, chimneys, gaps beneath garage doors, or under eaves. Even tiny holes as small as a quarter inch. Once these locations have been identified by our bat removal specialist we will take steps to ensure that they are sealed off so no other bats can get inside your home.

This is how we handle bat exclusions:

  • We spend a great deal of time identifying bat entry points and then sealing them shut
  • We set up one-way doors so that bats can exit but not reenter the building
  • Double check that all bats are excluded and out of your home
  • We then seal all entry points with steel wool or mesh screens to prevent re-entry
  • After this, we go through and do a thorough clean-up of any guano left in the attic or walls.
  • Proceed with replacement of soiled insulation.
  • Repair of wildlife damage, both inside and outside of the home.

First, we spend a lot of time looking for entry points to bats. To prevent future infestations, it is important to ensure that there are no other entry points. Next, you will need to install one-way doors that allow bats to exit your home but not return in. This is a humane and safe way to get rid of bats.

To prevent any accidental contact with bats, we double-check that all bats have left your home. After which we seal all entry points with steel wool or mesh screens to prevent the bats from re-entering.

Next is to do a thorough clean-up using professional-grade cleaners and sanitizers for any fecal matters left behind by the bats in your home’s floor and insulation. We will go to great lengths in order to make sure your home is free from odors or guano. After the insulation is removed, it is necessary to fog with enzyme cleaner in order to disinfect every corner.

Once the attic is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, we look at wildlife damage. We’ll fix any damage they may have done inside or outside of your home to make your house look new again.

Dangers of DIY Bat Removal

Bats have known reservoirs of zoonotic diseases. Zoonotic means that the diseases can be transferred from animals to humans. One of these deadly diseases is rabies. It has been found in bat colonies all over Florida, particularly along the coasts as they have easy access to food sources.

Another source of health hazard is bat guano. Accumulated bat guano can release spores of Histoplasma capsulatum, which can cause a severe respiratory disease called Histoplasmosis.

You should never attempt bat removal on your own if you do not have the proper training or protective gear. It is very easy to get infected by the diseases that bats carry and you do not want to take that risk. Not only is it dangerous for your health but also illegal in most states including Florida where bat removal must be done by a permit holder or licensed professional.

Histoplasmosis

Histoplasmosis can spread via bat droppings to other animals and humans. This disease can be especially dangerous for those with weak immune systems, such as children and pregnant women.

Histoplasmosis is transmitted by bat droppings and can also be breathed in as spores from dried Guano. These spores are aerosolized by wind and human activity. Histoplasma capsulatum spores can be inhaled and cause flu-like symptoms like fever, headaches, muscle aches, and other symptoms.

If not treated correctly, this condition can cause lung disease. It is crucial that you immediately contact professionals if you suspect there may be bats in your house.
