Why Briarwood Has a Bats Problem
Briarwood's tree-lined streets near Kissena Park and the proximity to Forest Park create ideal habitats for bats seeking roosts in attics, chimneys, and vents. The neighborhood's Tudor and Colonial-style homes, along with older apartment buildings near the Van Wyck Expressway, often have the architectural gaps and entry points that bats exploit for nesting.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Briarwood
Bat removal is strictly regulated under New York State law β bats may not be killed, and removal must use exclusion methods during approved windows outside maternity season (Juneβmid-August). Our technicians β licensed or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator β 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 β terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.
