Wildlife Education - Information and Advice for the Safe Removal of Bats from Attics

Wichita 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 Wildlife Professionals for bat control in Wichita. I have communicated with this company for many years, and they abide 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 Kansas 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 Wichita 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 Kansas, 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 Wildlife Professionals, 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 Wichita bat control project, and with Wildlife Professionals. You can email me personally if you have any problems with this company, and I will talk to them, but I doubt that will be necessary. Good luck!

Hi there, I am renting a duplex and I think my property managers are trying to get some bats out of the attic/walls and I am concerned that it is not a safe time of year to be dong so (and I do not know what measures they are taking). About a week ago they put moth balls up there hoping the smell would naturally drive them away, I complained about the smell and that is how I found out what they were up to. I was just wondering what officials I might want to contact to give them help or advice on what to do. I live in Salina, Kansas and it's a pretty small city (Wichita is the closest bigger city). Thank you very much for any help!
