Why SoHo Has a Bats Problem
SoHo's cast-iron architecture and older commercial buildings converted to residential lofts often feature gaps, vents, and roof access points that attract bats, particularly around Broadway, West Broadway, and the side streets between Houston and Canal. The neighborhood's mix of high-end retail, art galleries, and luxury residences requires discreet, professional bat control that preserves property values and maintains the area's prestigious character.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in SoHo
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.
