Why West Brighton Has a Bats Problem
West Brighton's mix of older Victorian homes, mid-century residential properties near Clove Lakes Park, and buildings along Victory Boulevard often provide ideal entry points for bats seeking roosts in attics, soffits, and chimneys. The tree-lined streets and proximity to Clove Lakes Park create perfect bat habitats, making professional exclusion essential for area homeowners.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in West Brighton
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.

Bat Removal & Exclusion in West Brighton — FAQs
How much does bat removal cost in West Brighton?▾
Bat removal and exclusion services in West Brighton typically range from $900 to $2,500, depending on the size of the colony, number of entry points, extent of damage, and accessibility of the roost. We provide free inspections and detailed estimates before beginning any work.
Is bat removal legal in Staten Island?▾
Yes, but bats are protected in New York, so removal must be done humanely using exclusion methods rather than extermination. We follow all New York State DEC regulations, which prohibit bat exclusion during maternity season (roughly May through August) when flightless young bats may be present.
How do I know if I have bats in my West Brighton home?▾
Common signs include squeaking or scratching sounds at dusk or dawn, bat droppings (guano) in attics or near entry points, brown staining around holes or gaps in your roofline, and seeing bats enter or exit your home at sunset. A strong ammonia-like odor from accumulated guano is another telltale sign.
What does the bat exclusion process involve?▾
Our comprehensive service includes a thorough inspection to locate all entry points, installation of one-way exclusion devices that allow bats to leave but not return, sealing all secondary entry points, guano cleanup and sanitization, insulation replacement if needed, and a warranty period to ensure the exclusion is successful.
