Why Whitestone Has a Bats Problem
Whitestone's mix of Tudor-style homes, brick colonials, and waterfront properties built in the early-to-mid 20th century often feature attics, eaves, and architectural details that can provide entry points for bats. The neighborhood's tree-lined streets and proximity to Francis Lewis Park create ideal habitat conditions that attract bat populations seeking roosting sites in residential structures.
Why Choose Us for Bat Removal & Exclusion in Whitestone
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 Whitestone homes?▾

Is bat removal in NYC legal and humane?▾
Yes, our bat removal methods are completely legal and humane. We follow all New York State DEC regulations, which prohibit harming bats.
