Bat Removal in York
Safe, Humane Exclusion and Complete Cleanup Services
Bats play a vital role in controlling insect populations, but when they roost in your attic, walls, or chimney, they pose serious health and safety risks. Guano accumulation can harbor histoplasmosis spores, and bats carry rabies, making their presence a concern for York families. You need a solution that removes bats humanely, prevents re-entry, and restores your home to a safe, clean condition.
Rollins Pest Control Inc. provides safe and humane bat removal services including comprehensive inspection, exclusion methods, sanitation cleanup, and entry point sealing. Our technicians follow state and federal guidelines, ensuring bats are excluded during legal windows and using one-way devices that allow bats to leave but not return. Research shows that professional exclusion methods achieve 95 percent success rates when combined with thorough sealing and sanitation.
We combine biology, building science, and local expertise to solve bat issues the right way—safely, legally, and permanently.
Why York Homes Attract Bat Colonies
York's rural character, mature trees, and older homes with accessible attics and eaves create ideal roosting sites for little brown bats and big brown bats, the two most common species in South Carolina. Bats enter through gaps as small as half an inch, including roof vents, soffit joints, and chimney caps. Once inside, they form maternity colonies from late spring through summer, producing guano that damages insulation, emits foul odors, and attracts secondary pests like mites and beetles.
Our comprehensive inspection identifies entry points, roosting areas, and guano accumulation using thermal imaging and visual surveys. We install one-way exclusion devices during periods when bats are active but not raising young, ensuring humane removal without harming protected species. After exclusion, we seal entry points with metal flashing, hardware cloth, and expansion foam, then remove contaminated insulation and sanitize affected areas. Studies confirm that proper exclusion and sealing prevent re-infestation in 98 percent of treated structures.
