An Interesting Pest
When people think of pests in the home—at least when I do—they think of insects, bugs, and maybe small animals such as rodents. There are of course many different types of pests that can infest a home. One of the pests that perhaps is not as commonly thought of are bats! Bats do indeed infest homes and can be a pesky guests.
These pests can be heard throughout the night rustling around, and they also leave dropping.

Rabies or No Rabies?
Many people think that bats carry rabies and this makes them dangerous creatures, especially to have living in your home. It is true that bats can have rabies. This is because they are warm-blooded mammals so it is definitely possible for a bat to have rabies, but it is also unlikely and rare for them to have it.
Bats also tend to stay away human interaction and do not have a reason to interact with humans. So, the chances of getting rabies from a bat are very low, even though possible. When working to eliminate bat problems our trained workers are cautious and aware of the specific risks of the particular situation when removing the problem.

I Don’t Want Bats
I assume you still don’t want bats in your home, even if it is unlikely that they carry rabies. There are many ways to identify whether you have a bat problem and what you can do to prevent and maintain it.
First, it is extremely helpful to take a look at your home from outside during dusk hours so that you can have a good look at where the bats are leaving and entering. This helps you locate the precise location of where they are likely living.
Next, it is important for the workers who are doing the inspection and treatment to take a look during the daytime hours when the bats are sleeping. This helps identify what type of bats they are as well as the precise entering points and areas of the building that need to be fixed.
The most common way to remove bats is for the workers to confine the bats in one area and then let them free. Once the bats are removed then the workers work to prevent reentry by patching up the holes and openings of the building.
