Do you hear strange noises in your attic?

Wildlife problems can be troublesome when they are outside, but when an animal invades your home it can be scary and also dangerous.

Envirocare has certified nuisance wildlife technicians on our staff that are familiar with all of the many types of wildlife our customers may come in contact with at their home. We provide trapping and removal services for all nuisance pests, but specialize in the following animals:

   
Raccoons Flying Squirrels
   
Grey squirrels Bats
Are bats driving you batty?

Connecticut has a significant bat population, it's also the wildlife removal service that we are most called upon to perform. Over the years we have succesfully completed hundreds of bat exclusions on homes ranging in age from 200 years old to 5 years young.

The process of performing a bat exclusion can be both rewarding and dangerous. If done thoroughly and correctly a bat exclusion will last for years, but if done partially bats will become pests that revisit each and every year. As this happens the colony will become larger, more problematic to remove and the droppings will begin to pile up.

Bats are a precious resource that we don't want to harm. A colony of bats near your home can make a significant impact on the population of flying insect pests like mosquittos which are responsible for the spread of diseases like west nile virus . The unfortunate part about the presence of bats in your home is that there is a chance they can have rabies. As you know rabies is fatal in 100% of human acquired cases, this is the reason bats must be excluded from your home. Bats also are not picky about where they leave their droppings (guano), bat guano is responsible for the upper respitory disease histoplasmosis.

Here's how a bat exclusion is done.

We answer so many questions about the exclusion process that as part of our site we wanted to show one in progress and present our 3 goals.

1. Keep the bats alive.
2. Expel all the bats from your home or business.
3. Keep the bats from returning.
Here are the basics to completing a bat exclusion in the order in which they are performed.
   
Perform a complete inspection of the home Confirm the presence of bats, this is guano at a chimney Find where bats are
entering the home
   
       
     
Install a temporary door
to allow bats out, but
not back in
Seal voids to prevent bat
re-entry
     
       

The one-way doors are left in place for a minumum of 5-7 days depending on weather conditions. After the bats are confirmed all gone, our technicians return to seal the remaining voids. It is important that all gaps are sealed as bats are able to roost in any area of a bit less than 1/4''.

All our bats services are guaranteed, if the bats return so will we.
