Am I Living With Bats?
The Humane Way To Deal With Bats
At first, you might not be sure whether or not you are actually living with bats in your home, so it’s best to do a check of a few things first and foremost. There are some clear signs that you might be sharing a home with some bats, which include:
- Evidence of a roost. Generally, bats do not make themselves known very easily, as they are quiet and don’t make a lot of mess. But if you see a roost, then you know you might have a bat problem.
- Flying around at night. At first, you might wonder what it is that you are seeing flying around your yard at night, but it is very often going to be bats, as most birds will not fly at night. If you notice this behavior, especially near rooflines or vents, it may be time to consider professional bat removal services.
- Bats can produce a very large quantity of feces – called “guano”. This is another clear sign that you are sharing your home with bats. Large amounts of bat droppings not only smell but can cause damage and present potential respiratory risks.
If you discover any of these signs, it’s best to contact our bat control specialists promptly. SWAT Wildlife’s experienced bat removal experts are trained to locate hidden roosts, identify active entry points, and implement an effective, humane bat removal process.

How Can SWAT Wildlife Help?
Finding A Sick Bat
If you find a sick or ailing bat, it is especially important that you have us come and take it away for you.

Under no circumstances should you try to handle the situation yourself – the bat in question could be carrying a disease, and you should not feel that you have to put yourself at risk. It is always best to get in touch with our professional bat removal team, rather than trying to deal with it yourself, especially if the bat appears to be ill.
Should I Capture A Bat?
If you have found a bat in your home, you should not try to capture it. Not only will this cause incredible distress for the animal, but it is also possible that you will not be successful, in which case you might make the problem worse. In some scenarios, you might even end up sustaining an injury from the bat you tried to remove. Bats are dangerous when mishandled and may bite if threatened. It is always best to get in touch with our bat removal specialists instead.
Getting Rid Of Bats In The Home
One thing to bear in mind is that you should not be too worried when you find you have bats in the home, as they are not very likely to pose an immediate threat, however, if left for too long, however, these little mammals can cause damage to you and your home—particularly due to bat droppings, noise, or lingering odor. Bats leave scent trails, which can attract others back to the same location.
The best thing to do is to remain calm and make sure that you are getting in touch with the professionals. Our bat removal services include expert assessment, humane bat exclusion, and thorough cleanup of affected areas. If bats have been roosting in outdoor structures like sheds or decks, we can also coordinate with our demolition services team to safely remove those structures if needed.
