Yes, but it must be done humanely and in compliance with New York State wildlife laws. Bats are protected species, so removal must be performed by licensed professionals using exclusion methods that allow bats to leave but not re-enter. Certain times of year, particularly during maternity season (May-August), have restrictions to protect flightless young bats.

Common signs include squeaking or scratching sounds at dusk or dawn, droppings (guano) in attics or near entry points, brown staining around gaps in siding or rooflines, and seeing bats enter or exit your home at sunset. You may also notice a strong ammonia-like odor from accumulated guano.

The complete bat exclusion process typically takes 2-4 weeks. After the initial inspection and sealing of entry points with one-way exclusion devices, we monitor for 1-2 weeks to ensure all bats have left. Once confirmed, we seal all remaining openings and perform cleanup and decontamination of affected areas as needed.
