Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Howard Beach
Bat removal is strictly regulated under New York State law — bats may not be killed, and removal must use exclusion methods during approved windows outside maternity season (June–mid-August). Our technicians — licensed or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator — inspect your home or building for all entry points, paying particular attention to ridge caps, gable vents, soffit gaps, and chimney flashing where bats typically enter. We install one-way exclusion devices over primary entry points during the legal exclusion window, allowing bats to exit but not re-enter, then return to seal all openings permanently with caulk, hardware cloth, and foam once bats have vacated. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.

Is bat removal in Howard Beach legal and humane?▾
Yes, our bat removal methods are completely legal and humane, following all New York State wildlife regulations. We use one-way exclusion devices that allow bats to leave naturally but prevent re-entry, never trapping or harming bats. We also avoid exclusion during maternity season (May-August) when flightless pups could be present.
What are signs of bats in my Howard Beach home?▾
Common signs include squeaking or scratching sounds at dusk or dawn, dark stains near entry points, accumulation of guano (bat droppings) in attics or around your property's exterior, and seeing bats flying around your roofline at sunset. A strong ammonia-like odor from bat urine is another telltale sign of an infestation.
How long does bat exclusion take in Howard Beach?▾
The complete bat exclusion process typically takes 2-4 weeks from initial inspection to final seal-up. After installing one-way exclusion devices, we monitor for 1-2 weeks to ensure all bats have left before permanently sealing entry points. We then provide attic cleanup, insulation replacement if needed.
