Bat Removal & Exclusion for Massachusetts homes and businesses

Bat Removal & Exclusion in Massachusetts starts with an inspection, not a trap. Humane bat exclusion timed around maternity season, with full guano cleanup and sealing. Until someone has walked the roof line and the foundation, any quote is a guess.

Older properties in Massachusetts tend to have several entry points rather than one. Soffit returns, ridge vents, fascia gaps and chimney flashing all fail slowly, and animals find the failures long before people do.

Massachusetts' older housing stock is unusually prone to squirrel and bat attic intrusions, with skunks and groundhogs denning under decks and sheds.

Call (276) 319-2391 or request an inspection and we will book a window that works.

Signs to look for in Massachusetts

  • Bats swirling out from the roof line at dusk
  • Dark greasy staining around a gap or vent
  • Guano piles below an eave, gable or in the attic
  • A sharp ammonia smell from the attic
  • Squeaking or rustling in walls at dawn
  • A single bat found inside the living space

What the Massachusetts service covers

  • Full colony exclusion using one-way valves
  • Maternity season timing and compliance
  • Single bat capture and removal from living space
  • Guano cleanup and attic decontamination
  • Ridge cap, gable and chimney flashing sealing
  • Contaminated insulation removal and replacement
  • Long-term exclusion warranty

What affects the price

  • Colony size and roost location
  • Season, since young cannot be sealed in
  • Linear feet of roof line needing sealing
  • Volume of guano and contamination

Whatever the answer, you get one flat number in writing after the inspection. It does not grow once the attic hatch is open.

Bat Removal & Exclusion in Massachusetts: frequently asked questions

Is it legal to remove bats in Massachusetts?
Bats are protected in most places and exclusion is timed around maternity season. We work within those rules, which sometimes means waiting until the young can fly before the colony is sealed out.
Do you kill the bats?
No. Exclusion uses one-way valves that let bats leave and prevent re-entry. The colony relocates to a natural roost and the building is sealed behind them.
Why can you not just seal it now?
If flightless pups are inside, sealing traps them. They die in the wall cavity, which gives you an odour problem, an insect problem and a distressed colony trying to chew back in.
Is bat guano dangerous?
Accumulated guano can support a fungus that causes respiratory illness when spores are disturbed. That is why cleanup uses containment and protective equipment rather than a shop vacuum.
What if there is a single bat inside my house?
Confine it to one room, close interior doors, and call (276) 319-2391. Do not release it yourself if anyone may have been bitten or had contact while asleep, because the bat may need testing.
How much does bat exclusion cost in Massachusetts?
It scales with the linear footage of roof line to be sealed and the amount of guano cleanup. Quoted flat after inspection.
There is an animal inside my house right now. What do I do?
Close interior doors to confine it to one room, open an exterior door or window in that room if you safely can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to corner or handle it. Call (276) 319-2391 and we will talk you through it.
What areas of Massachusetts do you cover?
We serve the whole of Massachusetts, including rural counties. If you are not sure whether your address is covered, call (276) 319-2391 and we will confirm in under a minute.
