Why Kew Gardens Hills Has a Bats Problem
Kew Gardens Hills' tree-lined streets and proximity to Kissena Park create ideal habitats for bat populations seeking roosts in the neighborhood's mix of pre-war homes and apartment buildings. The area's older structures, particularly near Vleigh Place and the Main Street corridor, often have vulnerable entry points in eaves, vents, and chimneys that bats exploit for nesting sites.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Kew Gardens Hills
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 NYS DEC licensed technicians 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. Our 30-day guarantee covers any bat re-entry through areas we treated.

Bat Removal & Exclusion in Kew Gardens Hills — FAQs
How do I know if I have bats in my Kew Gardens Hills home?▾
Common signs include squeaking or scratching sounds at dusk or dawn, small dark droppings (guano) in attics or near entry points, brown staining around openings, and sightings of bats entering or exiting your home at sunset. You may also notice a distinctive musty odor from accumulated guano.
Is bat removal legal in New York, and when can it be done?▾
Bat removal is legal in New York but regulated to protect bat populations. Exclusion work cannot be performed during maternity season (May 1 - August 15) when flightless young are present. Our team follows all state and local guidelines to ensure humane, legal bat removal year-round, with exclusion work scheduled appropriately.
What does the bat exclusion process involve?▾
Our comprehensive process includes a detailed inspection to locate all entry points and roosting areas, installation of one-way exclusion devices that allow bats to leave but not return, sealing of all secondary entry points, attic cleanup and decontamination, and insulation replacement if needed. We then monitor to ensure complete exclusion before final sealing.
Why does bat removal cost $900 to $2,500 in Kew Gardens Hills?▾
Pricing varies based on colony size, number of entry points, building height and accessibility, extent of damage and cleanup required, and necessary repairs. A single-entry point exclusion on a small home may cost around $900, while larger colonies in multi-story buildings with extensive guano cleanup and multiple access points can reach $2,500. We provide free detailed estimates with transparent pricing.
