Why Bat Control Is Essential
Top Reasons You Shouldn't Ignore Bat Infestations
Health Risks from Diseases
Bats can carry and transmit dangerous diseases like rabies, which pose serious health risks to humans and pets. Ignoring an infestation increases the likelihood of contact, leading to potential exposure to these diseases.
Bat Droppings (Guano) Can Damage Your Home
Accumulated bat droppings, known as guano, can damage insulation, wood, and other structural elements of your home. Over time, this can lead to costly repairs and compromised air quality.
Bats Will Return Year After Year
Bats are creatures of habit and will return to the same roosting spot if it’s left untreated. Ignoring the problem can lead to repeated infestations, making it harder to fully eliminate them in the future.
Damage to Insulation and Wiring
Bats, while not directly destructive like rodents, can cause damage to insulation by tearing it apart for nesting. In some cases, they can also disturb electrical wiring, creating fire hazards.
Impact on Property Value
A bat infestation can significantly affect your home’s value, especially if potential buyers are aware of the damage and health risks associated with it. Addressing the issue early will protect your investment.
Noise Disturbance
Bats are nocturnal creatures, and their activity can lead to disruptive noises in your attic or walls during the night. This can disturb your sleep and lower your overall quality of life.
Downriver Pest Control's Approach
Inspection

Mitigation
Safe and humane removal using advanced techniques.
Exclusion
Sealing entry points to ensure they don’t come back.
Clean Up
For an additional charge, we will Remove bat droppings and sanitize the affected areas.
TOP SIGNS OF BATS IN YOUR HOME
Bat Droppings (Guano)
Bat droppings, or guano, are small, dark pellets that accumulate in piles near entry points like windowsills, attics, or other secluded areas. They may resemble mouse droppings but are typically crumbly and dry.
Noises in the Attic or Walls
Bats are nocturnal, so you might hear fluttering, scratching, or squeaking sounds at night, particularly in attics or wall spaces where they roost.
Visible Bats or Staining Around Entry Points
You might see bats flying in and out of small openings around your home, especially at dusk. Look for dark stains or grease marks around these openings, as bats leave behind oils from their bodies when squeezing through tight spaces.
