Why Carroll Gardens Has a Bats Problem
Carroll Gardens' tree-lined streets and vintage brownstones between the Gowanus Canal and Red Hook provide ideal roosting spots for bats in attics, chimneys, and decorative cornices.

Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Carroll Gardens
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.

Bat Removal & Exclusion in Carroll Gardens β FAQs
Why are bats common in Carroll Gardens homes?βΎ
Carroll Gardens' older brownstones and row houses often have small gaps in rooflines, deteriorating mortar, and chimney openings that provide perfect entry points for bats. The neighborhood's mature trees and proximity to green spaces also attract insects that bats feed on, making the area ideal bat habitat.
Is bat removal legal in NYC?βΎ
Yes, but bats are protected species in New York, so removal must be done humanely by a licensed company. We use exclusion methods that allow bats to leave naturally while preventing re-entry, typically performed outside of maternity season (June-August) to avoid separating mothers from pups.
What does the price range include?βΎ
The final cost depends on the size of your home, the extent of the infestation, and the number of entry points requiring exclusion work.
How long does bat exclusion take in Carroll Gardens?βΎ
Most bat exclusion projects take 2-4 weeks from initial inspection to completion. We install one-way exclusion devices that allow bats to exit over 3-7 days, then return to permanently seal all entry points. The timeline may vary depending on colony size and the complexity of your building's architecture.
