Bat Removal & Exclusion in South Dakota: frequently asked questions

Is it legal to remove bats in South Dakota?
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 South Dakota?
It scales with the linear footage of roof line to be sealed and the amount of guano cleanup. Quoted flat after inspection.
Do you handle commercial properties in South Dakota?
Yes. Restaurants, warehouses, retail, offices, schools and multi-unit housing, usually scheduled overnight or after hours so you do not lose trading time. Documentation is provided for inspections.
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.
