If you’re dealing with a bat infestation in your attic, home, or business, you need professional bat removal services to safely and legally handle the situation. While bats are essential for controlling mosquito populations, their presence inside buildings can lead to structural damage, hazardous guano buildup, and serious health risks. Bat droppings can harbor Histoplasmosis, a dangerous fungal infection, and bats are known carriers of rabies, making proper removal and exclusion critical.

At Southern Wildlife Management, we specialize in humane bat control, offering bat exclusion, guano cleanup, attic decontamination, and entry-point sealing to ensure bats cannot return. Our Fully Licensed, Certified & Insured Bat Removal Experts use safe, effective, and permanent solutions that comply with federal and state laws protecting bats. With over 15 years of experience, we help homeowners and businesses remove bats, clean contaminated areas, and protect properties from future infestations.

Our Licensed Bat Removal Experts inspect the attic and exterior to identify bat entry points and assess the size of the infestation. We determine the time, materials, and cleanup needed for proper Bat Exclusion and Guano Removal.

After the inspection, we provide a flat-rate quote for both services.

✅ If approved, we begin work immediately—no delays.

We Get Bats OUT – And KEEP Them OUT. At Southern Wildlife Management, every Bat Removal and Exclusion service is custom-tailored to your structure. We use humane, legal methods that ensure bats are never harmed during the process.

Bats can slip through gaps as small as ¼ inch by 1½ inch—so missing even one opening can lead to re-entry. That’s why our Bat Exclusion process is thorough. We seal all potential entry points using critter-proof materials and build our work to last—spraying both sides of the metal for durability and using single-sheet mesh on gable vents for a clean, professional finish. No shortcuts, no piecing together patch jobs.

After exclusion, we perform Bat Guano Clean-Up, removing droppings, sanitizing affected areas, and eliminating any lingering odors or health hazards.

Bats are protected, and harming them can lead to serious fines—even for homeowners. That’s why Bat Exclusion, not trapping or harming, is the only legal and ethical solution.

When hiring a bat removal company, look for:

1. Licensed & Legal – You’re legally responsible if bats are harmed. Hire a provider who follows all wildlife laws.
2. Permanent Exclusion – Pros seal all entry points to prevent re-entry.
3. Guano Cleanup – Proper cleanup removes harmful bacteria, fungi, and odor.

Keep your home safe by watching for these clear indicators of a bat presence in your attic or walls:

Staining or Grease Marks: Dark, oily smudges around holes and vents caused by bat fur oils as they come and go.

Nocturnal Sounds: You might hear fluttering, scratching, or squeaking near dusk or dawn, especially around the attic, chimney, or walls.

Bat Guano: Small, dark droppings—pebble-sized pellets—near entry points, with a musty odor and visible stains. Accumulated guano also poses a health risk.

Strong Odors: A persistent ammonia-like or musty smell in your attic or crawlspace is a major red flag of a bat colony.

Visual Activity: Bats flying in and out around dusk, especially near vent openings, eaves, or roof gaps, often signal roosting.
