Ohio Bat Removal
Have Bats in your Home or Attic?
As scary as they may appear, bats are actually quite benign and even shy. Though they may qualify as nuisance pests if they are in your home, knowing their behavior will help you to keep your home environment free of bats while letting them play their pest control role within the food chain.
Bat Facts:
- All bat species are federally protected, making bat removal not an easy task
- Bats like warm and confined areas to nest - this is why they are commonly found in an attic or chimney
- Bats can range from 1oz in weight to up to 2lbs for mega bat species
- A bat’s flight is more sporadic and swooping than a bird’s movements.
- Some bats live together in colonies typically ranging from 100-1,000 individuals. Others are solitary and live alone. Single colonizing bats will typically be males.
- Roughly 40-50 bat species call the U.S. home, and more than 1,200 species have been discovered worldwide.
- Bat numbers are rapidly dropping due to disease and habitat loss.
