Why Jericho Has a Bats Problem
Jericho's tree-lined neighborhoods and mix of mid-century colonials and modern estates provide ideal roosting opportunities for little brown bats and big brown bats, especially in older attics and decorative shutters. Properties near Milleridge Village and along the wooded areas surrounding local schools are particularly susceptible to bat intrusions during spring and fall migration periods.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Jericho
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 NYS DEC licensed technicians 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. Our 30-day guarantee covers any bat re-entry through areas we treated.

Bat Removal & Exclusion in Jericho — FAQs
What does the bat removal process involve in Jericho homes?▾
Our Jericho bat removal service includes a thorough inspection to locate entry points and roosting areas, humane exclusion using one-way valves that allow bats to exit but not return, sealing all potential entry points (often ½ inch or larger), attic cleanup and sanitation to remove guano, and follow-up inspections to ensure complete exclusion.
Why does the price range from $900 to $2,500 for bat removal?▾
Pricing depends on several factors including the size of the bat colony, number of entry points requiring sealing, accessibility of roosting areas, extent of guano cleanup needed, and the size and construction of your Jericho home. A single-entry point issue may cost around $900, while large infestations in multi-story homes with extensive damage can reach $2,500 or more.
When is bat season in Jericho, and when should I schedule removal?▾
Bats are most active in Jericho from April through October. However, New York regulations prohibit exclusion from June 1 through July 31 during maternity season when flightless pups are present. The best times for bat removal are spring (April-May) or late summer through fall (August-October) to avoid trapping young bats inside.
Are bats dangerous, and should Jericho residents be concerned?▾
While bats are beneficial for controlling insects, they pose health risks when roosting in homes. Bat guano can harbor histoplasmosis spores, and bats can carry rabies. Additionally, their droppings and urine cause structural damage, staining, and odors. Professional removal is essential for safety, as direct contact should always be avoided.
