The Little Brown and Big Brown bats roost usually in homes and structures where they can enter through areas as small as a quarter of an inch. These small little animals live in colonies, sometimes small, five to ten bats, and sometimes large, ranging from several hundred to several thousands. A bat proofing process is needed to resolve any situation where a building, home, or structure is infested with this type of animal. Most homeowners make the mistake of sealing entrances and openings to prevent bats from gaining access into their structure, but in a many cases, seal areas that the bats are using to go out of the structure. When this is done it will force the entire colony of bats down through the living quarters of the house, which can be a very messy and dangerous situation.Bat exclusions are needed to remove bats from buildings and structures. All of the cracks, holes, crevices, anything the size of a quarter inch or more are sealed, and then bats are funneled through one-way doors or tubes out of the structure. After this process is complete (a week to ten days) the whole colony has been removed.



What to do about them and how to get rid of bats in Iowa



The exclusion process starts with an inspection and an estimate for complete exclusion. The price of the inspection is waived if the customer completes the exclusion process with Complete Wildlife Control. The value of the exclusion process varies depending on size of the structure, safety concerns, amount of ladder time involved, height and distance traveled to get to the location.It is impossible to give an accurate estimate without looking at the structure in question. Bat exclusion is usually warranted for two or three years and that can be extended with annual inspections.



About our warranty



We have found that a three year warranty is the maximum that can be given without reinspecting the property annually. In the Midwest climate where temperatures can go from -20 to 110 degrees in one year, building gaps will open up over time and provide a new means for bats to enter. We have been in the bat business for over a decade and honor our warranty, ask for references.


If we can not warrant the work we do not take the job. Tile, shake, and clay roofs can not be warranted by us,. Also, if the building has more of a structural, carpentry issue then a bat problem, the work can't be warranted.



Bat dropping and guano cleanup



After the bats have been excluded from the property. A clean up may be necessary. Bat droppings may contain diseases and the odor smells of dirty diapers. Complete Wildlife Control has a 15hp vacuum that is employed in removing bat guano. The vac stays out side along with the dust and waste and only a hose is inside the attic doing the work. After bat poop removal, a disinfectant is applied that kills bacteria and reduces odors on contact.
