Bat Removal
Bats in the attic do more than make unsettling noises in the night. These pests ruin insulation, an essential component of your home, and spread diseases to each other, to people and to your pets. However, they’re also a protected species that helps keep the planet’s ecosystem alive in many ways.
When you find a bat infestation in your home, the next step should be to call a professional bat removal company like Pro-Staff that specializes in removing bats from homes and businesses.
The Pro-Staff Bat Removal Process
At Pro-Staff, our bat removal process focuses on keeping humans, bats and homes safe. With the help of our technicians, we remove bats from your home safely and humanely and keep them out with preventative methods after the fact.
Here’s how it works:
- Our technicians start by performing a FREE inspection.
- Once that’s done, you can schedule a removal.
- Bat removal can only be done during certain seasons, so depending on when you find the infestation, there may be a period where you’re waiting for bat removal services. Our expert team will advise you on what to do during that time.
- When the bats are removed from your home, our technicians return to clean up the damage they cause.
- Our team makes recommendations on preventative methods to implement to avoid another bat infestation.
Why We Offer Bat Removal Services
Bats fly into homes looking for shelter. When it’s cold, these creatures drop down from your rafters and get under the insulation for warmth, which damages and infects the insulation. When it warms up again, they become more active — and more noisy — which is why homeowners typically notice them toward the end of winter.
Diseases Bats Spread
Bats may seem like harmless creatures at a glance, but they spread nasty diseases to humans. These are just a few diseases bats are known for spreading in North America:
- Rabies
- Salmonellosis
- Histoplasmosis
- External parasites
How Our Bat Removal Process Works
The bat removal process can be tricky. Des Moines has specific laws around how and when you can remove bats. Our technicians take care to remove bats from homes and businesses in the most humane way possible and ensure they don’t fly right back.
Here’s how the process works:
- We inspect your home for FREE to make sure you’re dealing with bats.
- You schedule a follow-up appointment for the spring, when bats can be safely removed.
- We remove the bats by releasing them back into the wild with a one-way device.
- Once we release the bats, we get to work removing and cleaning up your insulation.
