Bats are tiny; so tiny, they can squeeze through an opening\nas small as 3\/8th<\/sup> of an inch. That is similar to the width of a\nnickel! Common access points for bats include loose roof shingles, rotted\nsiding, crumbling mortar, torn screens, damaged weatherproofing, thin layers of\ninsulation, cracks in foundation, broken skylights, missing chimney caps, and similar\nstructural vulnerabilities. All of this means that bats can easily find a way\ninto our homes and structures if entry points like this exist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is important to consult with a licensed and insured Indianapolis\nwildlife control company to have your home inspected for possible structural\nvulnerabilities, as well as, any contributing environmental factors that might\nattract nuisance wildlife to your home. Not only can a wildlife removal and\ncontrol team abate nuisance wildlife, they can also protect your property from\nanimal damages and threats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In the meantime, here are the signs to look as you inspect\nyour property:<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the most common signs of bat activity around the\nhouse is bat guano. Bat droppings are often confused for rodent droppings, but\nif you find them around windowsills, door ledges, or in insulation, you can\nsafely assume it belongs to bats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bat fur retains a natural oil that can leave behind dark\nstains around the edges of their entry points. If you find holes or openings\nwith oil-like stains around the borders, it could be a bat opening. Look for\nthese stains on window frames, door frames, walls, siding, cement, concrete,\nwood, and rafters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When bats are around and awake, you can hear them. Typical\nbat sounds include chirping, chattering, squeaking, squealing, fluttering, and\nbustling. These are commonly heard through walls or in the ceiling, but can\nalso be heard from outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When bats occupy an interior area of a home for too long, their\ndroppings can seep through rafters, floorboards, insulation, ceilings, walls, and\neventually into the living areas of the home. This permeation can leave\nunsightly stains on the walls and ceilings, and cause lingering orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you actually see bats around dusk swooping in and out of\nyour chimney or other area of your home, you can safely assume you have\nnuisance bats in close proximity. However, your home might not be a target just\nyet. Be sure to contact a wildlife control expert as soon as possible for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Call 317-257-2290<\/strong> for non-lethal Indianapolis bat removal<\/a> you can trust.
