Why Bat Infestations Are a Problem
- Health risks: Bat droppings (guano) can harbor fungi that cause respiratory issues, including histoplasmosis.
- Noise and odor: Colonies create scratching sounds in attics and leave strong odors from droppings and urine.
- Damage: Guano buildup can stain walls, damage insulation, and compromise air quality.
Signs You May Have Bats
- Scratching or squeaking sounds in walls or attic spaces, especially at dusk and dawn.
- Guano accumulation near entry points like vents, eaves, or chimneys.
- Dark stains or grease marks around small openings (from bat oils).
- Sightings at dusk as bats exit to feed.
How Bats Get Inside
Bats can squeeze through gaps as small as ½ inch. Common entry points include:
- Rooflines, soffits, and fascia gaps
- Chimneys and vents
- Cracks in siding or roofing tiles
- Unscreened attic vents
