Why Midtown West Has a Bats Problem
Midtown West's iconic landmarks like Times Square, Madison Square Garden, and the Port Authority Bus Terminal are surrounded by a mix of historic brownstones, theater buildings, and modern high-rises where bats frequently roost in HVAC systems, facades, and roof voids. The neighborhood's proximity to the Hudson River and dense concentration of older buildings with architectural gaps make professional bat exclusion essential for property owners and managers throughout Hell's Kitchen, Clinton, and the Garment District.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Midtown West
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.
