Bats are a troublesome pest to get rid of because of how common bat phobias are. This is for a good reason because bats are carriers of several potentially deadly diseases. Many thousands of dollars in damages are caused by bats every year to private property.
For an average person, it may be an extremely difficult task to eliminate with his/her individual effort. Bats nest in areas that may be difficult to find and/or access. Find out how to get rid of the winged pests safely with bat removal Ottawa services.
The Common Characteristics Of Bats
Bats are nocturnal creatures that can either live by itself or in a colony. They are commonly seen entering and exiting a home during dawn and dusk for foraging. Unlike their notorious reputation of sucking blood, most bats have diets mainly consisting of insects and fruits.
They can cause damages to property by a variety of different ways. Their guano can damage the home structure and furnitures. Additionally, it releases irritants that are damaging to inhale. Always wear safety gear such as a protective mask when handling the waste products from bats.
Why Bats Are Difficult To Get Rid Of
Bats require an unique pest control method with specialized techniques designed to eliminate them. Unlike common land dwelling animals, regular traps like mouse traps and cages will not be effective in controlling flying pests. There are tailored pest control methods when dealing with bats.
The roosts of bats may also be located in an area hard to reach such as the higher regions of a home. Setting traps and deterrents in these places can be difficult due to the lack of easy access. Injuries may result when residents try to take matters into their own hand.
The Safety Hazards Of Handling Bats
One reason that makes bats difficult to get rid of is the potential safety hazard of handling them. This is because bats, like all wild animals, can attack when threatened or startled. Seek medical treatment immediately if you or someone else has been bitten or scratched by a bat.
Bats in particular are a high risk pest due to their rates of rabies, an almost always fatal disease without proper medical intervention. Additionally, bats can also transmit other diseases such as Histoplasmosis, spread by a fungus in their guano.
