There are six species of bats that are federally protected, and numerous states that have specific regulations regarding bat removal. To avoid breaking any laws or regulations, call the professionals at Issaquah Pest & Home Services for help when dealing with your bat problems.
Our Unique Approach To Bat Control Service
Our professionals will perform a full inspection of the interior and exterior of your home. Due to the threat of exposure to guano, it is incredibly important for a respirator to be worn when in an attic containing bats. After inspection, our experts will design a custom plan for your home to safely remove the bats and properly seal your home. If a bat is in your living space at the time of inspection, the top priority is to keep you as well as the bat safe. Bats should never be handled with bare hands.
1. Bat Inspection
Our experts will search for signs such as rub marks, a strong scent of ammonia, guano, and small openings.
2. Bat Removal
The most humane and effective way to remove bats is by using a bat valve in conjunction with a full home exclusion. A bat valve is like a one-way door. It allows for bats to exit your home but not re-enter. Since each bat removal is unique, our experts will use or create a bat valve specifically for your home. We will determine the correct amount of bat valves to be used, but most removals usually require only one bat valve. After installation, all other entry points will be sealed, allowing for bats to only exit through the valve. The removal process will typically take 3-7 days. Our experts will perform a final attic inspection before removing the valve. After removing the valve, the final entry point will be sealed, leaving your home bat free.
It is important to note that many states have regulations in which bat removal cannot be performed during maternity season. Luckily, Issaquah Pest & Home Services can help.
3. Bat Prevention
It is important to note that some bats return to the same roost year after year. If you want to prohibit bats from entering your home, taking preventative measures is the best precaution you can take. Bats fortunately will not gnaw their way into your home like rodents, they will only utilize every existing entry point to make their way into your home. Small actions such as keeping your outside lights turned off at night is another way to prevent bats. The lights will attract insects, and insects are a huge food source for bats. As well as, minimizing water sources around your property if possible. This will help prevent bats, and other wildlife, from becoming a nuisance.

The team clearly take proud in what they do so I highly recommend Dan and Dane and IPC.– David L. in Arlington, WA
