Understanding Bat Infestations and Removal Services
What are the signs of a bat infestation?
Identifying Bat Infestation Indicators
Bat infestations can be subtle until they become a serious problem. Key signs include the presence of bat guano (droppings), entry and exit holes approximately the size of a dime near the roofline and other structural gaps, and winter sightings of bats, which suggest they may be hibernating within your home. Finding piles of small, elongated pellets (bat droppings) in your attic, walls, or ceilings is a major red flag. Additionally, bats can cause property damage and pose health risks, making their early detection crucial.
Are bats harmful to humans?
Potential Health Risks from Bats
While bats play an essential role in controlling insect populations, they can pose significant health risks to humans. Diseases such as rabies can be transmitted through bites, and bat guano can harbor histoplasmosis spores, which, when inhaled, can lead to respiratory issues. It’s important to address bat infestations promptly and professionally to mitigate these health risks and protect your family and property.
How do you remove bats from a property?
Humane Bat Removal Techniques
Icon Pest specializes in removing bats using humane and effective strategies. We utilize a one-way door system, allowing bats to exit the property without returning, combined with physical removal where necessary. Our approach ensures that bats are not harmed during the process, aligning with government regulations and ethical practices. This method is safe for both humans and bats, emphasizing the importance of professional expertise in resolving bat infestations.
