As nights get cooler bats start to think about their winter den sites, which is mostly commonly in the attics of urban homes both in the city and countryside. Bats can fit through a hole the size of a dime and often enter in the gap that exists between the brick and soffit. Gates Wildlife will bat proof your home by caulking this existing gap to ensure that there is no access points into your attic. At this time of year we are able to install our one-way-door to allow the bats to exit but not re-enter.
Have you ever found a bat inside your home? If so, there is a good chance there is a colony of bats living inside your attic. If there is any concern that you might have a colony of bats in your home, give us a call to schedule a free on site estimate with one of our technicians.
