Bats

Bat removal services in Oklahoma CityBats are often misunderstood by many people. Did you know they are one of the more helpful animals at keeping the insect population down? As beneficial as bats are to the ecosystem, they are not a critter you want in your Oklahoma City home.

Bats are able to get into holes as small as a dime, so it's vital that you make sure bat entry points are covered/sealed on your home, such as holes in your siding, fascias, other areas of your roof and your chimney. A bat nesting in your attic may seem harmless enough, but their waste is some of the most hazardous wildlife waste that you can encounter.

Bat Removal Services

Like rodents, bats create damage in your Oklahoma City much larger than you'd think. Some common bat problems in the Oklahoma City area include:

  • Large accumulations of bat feces (guano) often found in attic corners.
    • The most common problem with bat guano is histoplasmosis. Mold spores that grow on guano can be inhaled and cause high fever and pneumonia.
  • Bat attic damage
    • Bats' preferred nesting and roosting area inside your home is the attic, and it's clear to see why. Attics are isolated, dark, and allow bats to relax, raise pups, and be protected from the elements.
  • Presence inside chimneys (sometimes accidental) 
    • Chimneys are another favorite nesting place for bats. They emulate caves, which are natural nesting areas for bats in the wild. 
  • Scratches and bites, when bats feel threatened, that can lead to hazardous illnesses and diseases
