Indianapolis Bat Removal

Not all wildlife removal companies are the same. Some have experience with bat removal projects, and are familiar with the proper methods for bat exclusion. But others use incorrect techniques, such as bat traps, summer exclusions, or worse, fumigants. Do your research before you hire someone! I personally recommend our field technician for bat control in Indianapolis.

I have communicated with our bat expert in Indianapolis for many years, and he abides by these bat removal principles:

  • Always perform a proper live exclusion.
  • Never use poisons or fumigants or kill bats.
  • Never use traps or attempt to relocate bats.
  • Never do a removal during the maternity season.
  • Seal all entry points shut with guarantee.
  • Offer attic cleanup and decontamination.
  • Properly Indiana licensed and insured.
As I discuss repeatedly on this website, bat removal projects are not easy, and not for amateurs. I have seen many horrible attempts at bat colony removal throughout the years, done both by do-it-yourself homeowners and by incompetent companies. Never hire a Indianapolis pest control company that uses poisons for rodent or insect control. They often attempt the same approach for bats. Not only is this incredibly destructive and illegal in Indiana, but it results in disaster for the homeowner, and does not actually solve the problem. It's very important that the removal of bats from the attic of your home is done in the correct manner, and there is only one correct way, with a live bat exclusion. To read more about this process, read my bats in the attic home page.

Before you hire anyone, including our tech at 317-225-5684, talk to them, and make sure that they understand what they are doing, and that they have experience. Be sure that they do abide by the principles I outlined above. This is not just for the sake of the bats - I'm no tree hugger - it's for the sake of doing the job correctly, for you and your property. The fact that it's good for the bats as well is a lucky coincidence. And really, bats are good animals, which I'm sure you realize. I hope you have a good experience with your Indianapolis bat control project. You can email me personally if you have any problems with our tech, and I will talk to him, but I doubt that will be necessary. Good luck!

Hello, My name is Angela and I am writing to you because I have lived on the tenth floor of a condominium complex in Indianapolis Indiana for 5 1/2 years now and I have had a bat problem from the very beginning. This morning I awoke to a bat landing on my face. I am worried about histoplasmosis and the possibility of rabies. Can you please help? Thank you

David , my name is Byron and I live in Indianapolis. I was doing a google search for bat removal and I came across your site. After reading I realized that your based in Florida however I thought that you might be able to give me some good advice. I think I may have bats behind the wall of my fireplace. When I watch T.V. I can hear them at night and I once opened the fireplace vent but nothing dropped down. They sound as if they are directly behind the walls of the fireplace. Is this a normal spot for them? Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Byron

Hi David I live in south Indianapolis. We have lived here about 10 years or so. We had a bat flying in our bedroom last night. It looked small. It landed I was able to put a container on it and safely move it outside. My son and I looked in he attic the best we could. I could not see any more but there were some places I could not see. How much does it cost to have the experts come and take a closer look at the attic and maybe help to seal up the outside of the attic. We gave a high lofted bathroom ceiling and then there is some areas where lights are that can not be seen from the floor but seem to have some openings from the attic to bedroom. We have had wasp in the past. I would like any advice you can give me. Are they afraid of us as well.
