Fast response in southeastern PA and Delaware
Licensed bat exclusion for homes and businesses in PA & DE. We follow all state wildlife regulations, using only humane exclusion methods to safely remove bat colonies from your property.
Bat exclusion is ONLY legal during specific windows in PA & DE: August 1 – October 31 and April 1 – May 14. Performing exclusion during summer (when pups cannot fly) traps babies inside and is illegal. We strictly follow these regulations and will schedule your exclusion during the appropriate window.
We identify all bat entry points, assess colony size, and check for guano accumulation.
We schedule exclusion during the appropriate legal window for your area.
One-way exclusion tubes and netting are installed at all entry points.

All entry points are permanently sealed and guano is safely remediated.

No — killing bats is illegal in Pennsylvania and Delaware. Bats are protected under state and federal law. The correct method is exclusion: we install one-way devices that allow bats to exit but not re-enter, then seal the entry points once all bats have left.
Bat exclusion should only be performed during two windows: August 1 – October 31, or April 1 – May 14. During summer (mid-May through July), flightless pups are present and exclusion would trap them inside. We will not perform exclusion during the off-limits season.
Bats can squeeze through gaps as small as 3/8 inch. Common entry points include gaps where the chimney meets siding, loose flashing, open ridge vents, deteriorated soffits, and gaps around utility pipes.
Yes. Bat guano can harbor Histoplasma capsulatum fungus spores, which cause histoplasmosis when inhaled. Large guano accumulations should be remediated by professionals wearing proper respiratory protection. We offer guano clean-up as part of our bat removal service.
