BATS
What is a bat?
The most common bats in our area are called little brown bats. They are generally brown and black in color and similar in size to a mouse.
Why do I have them?
Just like us, bats need a good home. They feed during the evening and night hours, then roost in warm areas during the day. This can include attics, behind shutters, soffits, etc. Having a bat problem is generally by chance.
Are they dangerous?
Bats are natural vectors for many pathogens, including rabies. In addition, bats can carry bat bugs (similar to bed bugs) and fleas. Direct contact with bats should be avoided.
How do you get rid of bats?
Getting rid of bats can be a tricky and dangerous task. It requires extensive knowledge as well as construction and safety know-how. That's why we employ experts with construction and repair skills. Our service includes the necessary eviction, exclusion and cleanup services needed.
Is the treatment safe?
Home Check uses only enough material to resolve the problem. We integrate natural bed bug products and mechanical means into our protocols as much as possible. When conventional materials are required, we follow very stringent guidelines for the use of the product to minimize the threat to people, pets or plants. All products are registered by the EPA. Our service technicians will inform you of any specific safety measures that need to be taken.
How can I prevent this in the future?
Pest problems can be difficult to prevent. Many of our clients choose to continue service with our Common Pest Control service to keep pests out of their home.
