Bats will squeeze through tiny gaps to escape the cold weather during winter. During late spring, bats enter homes to roost in attics to give birth. The maternity roost will stay in the attic through August until the pups are big enough to fly on their own. In some cases, bats will return to maternity roosts year after year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-are-bats-in-the-attic\">Why Are Bats in the Attic?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A combination of factors makes an attic attractive to bats looking for a roost in which to raise their young. When pregnant females like their roost sufficiently, they return year after year if left unchecked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-text-18-font-size\">\n<li><strong>Ease of Entry:&nbsp;<\/strong>Unlike nuisance animals such as squirrels or raccoons that can tear a hole in a roof, bats are attracted to existing small openings in vents and gaps in soffits, siding, or roof shingles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Proximity to Food:&nbsp;<\/strong>For pregnant females, being close to easy meals is key. If your property provides access to a body of water or has fruit trees, bats will congregate. Fields and ponds provide easy access to swarms of insects. Fruit and citrus farmers often attract bats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Darkness:&nbsp;<\/strong>A dark attic will allow bats to rest well during the daytime.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Safety From Outside Elements:<\/strong>&nbsp;Pregnant females and \u2014 once they are born \u2014 their pups will require warmth and safety. A cozy, dry attic that has enough room for the whole maternity colony and provides safety from predators is preferred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Minimal Activity:&nbsp;<\/strong>Bats will not roost where there is frequent human activity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-are-bats-a-problem\">Why are bats a problem?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bats are not dangerous to people directly, but they can spread diseases and damage your property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-text-18-font-size\">\n<li><strong>Bat Guano<\/strong>: Bat guano (droppings) are fertile ground for fungal spores to grow that cause histoplasmosis, a respiratory disease.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bat Guano Accumulation<\/strong>: The accumulation of bat guano can degrade the attic insulation, weaken your house structure, and stain your walls and ceiling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rabies<\/strong>: &nbsp;Bats are known carriers of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/wildlife\/bats\/bats-rabies\/\">rabies<\/a> so do not handle them.

At Critter Control of NW Washington, bat removal pricing starts at $2900. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1738774137770\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do bats get into the house?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">For the most part, bats are nocturnal, and humans sleep through their activity. However, to survive cold winters in various regions, bats enter homes and roost in secluded locations like attics. They can squeeze into openings as tiny as a quarter of an inch (6 mm) in diameter, such as cracks around windows and doors, pipes and electrical wiring that lead inside, and vents. If you suspect bats in your attic or elsewhere on your property, contact\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crittercontrol.com\/wildlife\/bats\/bats-in-the-attic\/\">Critter Control<\/a>\u00a0for help.<br\/><\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1738774228305\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Are bats dangerous to people and pets?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">While bats are beneficial creatures overall, they pose specific health threats. Though rabid dogs cause 99% of rabies-related deaths, bats are still carriers of the disease. Thankfully, even rabid bats refrain from biting humans unless they feel threatened.<br\/>Your safety and that of your family must be your highest priority. Critter Control can help you remove bats so that you do not have to worry about whether bats will return and put your family in harm\u2019s way.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1738774245423\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What problems do bats cause?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">One of the most considerable risks from a bat infestation is bat guano. Bat droppings act as a catalyst for the development of the fungus, and human infection occurs when people inhale the spores. Bats also host ectoparasites, like fleas, flies, ticks, and mites, that endanger the health of humans and pets. Finally, bat urine can cause a pervasive and unpleasant smell, while bat droppings stain ceilings and building visages.<br\/><\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\"
