Why NoLIta Has a Bats Problem
NoLIta's pre-war walkups and converted industrial buildings along Mulberry and Elizabeth Streets often feature the roof lines, ventilation gaps, and brick crevices that attract bat colonies.

Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in NoLIta
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 technicians — licensed or working under the direct supervision of a licensed applicator — 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 — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.

Are bats common in NoLIta buildings?▾
Yes, bats are found throughout Manhattan, including NoLIta. The neighborhood's older buildings with their chimneys, roof gaps, and brick facades provide numerous entry points for bats seeking shelter. Little Brown Bats and Big Brown Bats are the most common species we encounter in the area.
Is bat removal humane and legal in NYC?▾
Absolutely. We follow all New York State and NYC regulations for bat removal, using humane exclusion methods that allow bats to leave but not re-enter. We never use harmful chemicals or traps, and we time our work to avoid maternity seasons when flightless pups may be present.
How long does the bat exclusion process take?▾
Most bat exclusion projects in NoLIta take 1-3 days for installation, followed by a monitoring period of 3-7 days to ensure all bats have left. We then seal all entry points permanently. The timeline can vary based on colony size and building accessibility, but we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your property.
