How Are Bats Removed From An Attic Home or Structure?

 

Bat Removal , Bat Exclusion and Bat Extermination Services

A bat exclusion is simple to explain yet can be difficult because of the design of your structure, access to parts of your structure and condition of your structure. The concept is to close off all possible secondary access points using high grade silicone caulking or better, using metal or other-backing materials in the larger areas.

The incorrect method involves the use of spray foam expanding materials such as “GREAT STUFF” found in most hardware stores. Expanding foam breaks down quickly due to exposure to the sun and other weather elements. Birds and other animals can quickly tear GREAT STUFF apart and leave your attic open again to a future bat invasion in months to a year or two.
