Why South Orange Has a Bats Problem
South Orange's tree-lined streets and century-old homes with spacious attics create ideal conditions for bat colonies, particularly in neighborhoods surrounding the South Orange Performing Arts Center and areas near the South Mountain Reservation. The village's mix of Tudor, Colonial, and Victorian architecture often features the small gaps and vents that bats exploit for entry, making professional exclusion essential for long-term protection.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in South Orange
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.
