Bats in the attic aren’t anything any homeowner wants to deal with. When faced with a bat presence, you’ll want to have them removed as soon as possible to minimize damages to your home and other risks. However, that doesn’t mean DIY bat removal is the way to go. Just like with other wildlife, it’s best to have a professional come out to your home to remove any bats on the premises.
Bats are known carriers of several different diseases. Handling them in any capacity brings with it the potential for exposing yourself to one of these diseases, including rabies. It takes a professional bat removal expert to know how to safely remove any bats without the risk of disease exposure, which involves using special protective gear that you likely don’t have.
Another reason to leave bat removal to the professionals is their knowledge of how to ensure all bats are properly removed. The bats that you see in your home aren’t necessarily all of the bats present. Some can remain hidden even while you attempt to remove the others, meaning that you’ll have an incomplete removal. Only removing some of the bats on your property isn’t effective in protecting your home from the damages that come with wildlife. You’ll need a professional who knows how to locate all of the bats in and around your home to make sure your wildlife problem is fully addressed.
