Site Inspections    

When we enter a structure we can often immediately tell whether activity is bat or rodent after our evaluation of:

     *Odor – they and their excrement have distinctly different aromas

     *Droppings – location, appearance, consistency

     *Access points – current as well as potential  –  Interior & Exterior

     *Best course of action

Bats can flatten out and squirm through as small as a 1/8" crack (we've watched them do that).  So some of the places we can identify as potential access points may not be obvious to the untrained eye.  

Our Site Inspection invoice will advise you of:

     *our findings

     *our professional recommendations

Consultations

Although we will most likely not be doing the work ourselves, we will meet with the appropriate person designated by the property owner to advise:

     *what work needs to be done to exclude bats

     *WHEN bat exclusion work can be done

     *advisability of occupancy during bat activity

     *supplies needed (we can provide)

     *how to use the recommended supplies

     *advisability & use use of various devices to repel bats

     *necessity of having the guano cleaned out

We have spent many years learning about, determining the best ones and using the products and equipment needed for Exclusion and Repelling of bats in our area.  We know which products hold up to our cold winters, what temperature is necessary for effective product application and more.  For example, bats (and rodents) consider a spray foam product called "Great Stuff" to be great stuff  –they like to eat it.  Plus our special repellent foam will not adhere to where Great Stuff has been applied and so time and effort must go into removing the Great Stuff before our product can be applied.  

Retail Sales

We maintain an inventory or can order in the supplies we recommend including:

     *Bat Exclusion products

     *Bat Exclusion tools

     *Electronic Repelling Devices

     *Non-Electronic Repelling Devices

     *Odor Killing Disinfectant to spray over bat                  guano both before and after cleaning it out

Interior Bat Location

Finding a bat that is inside but hiding is a tough but important job.  Success is difficult and cannot be promised.  But we're willing to try, have the equipment to help us in the endeavor and know of less obvious places to look for them.  We will quote an hourly rate for this search in advance and arrange with you how long you want us to look before giving up if we haven't found any bats.  After all, they sometimes get out before such a search and at some point the search must be concluded.  This hourly rate includes our constant vigilance regarding the possibility of us being scratched or bitten by a live bat and our potential for having to pay for and endure rabies vaccinations or boosters as a result.

Delivery of Bats to the

Health Department

We have an ongoing relationship with the Gunnison County Department of Public Health in Gunnison whereby we deliver bats for rabies testing.  In fact, they call us "The Bat People" there and refer us to potential customers.  They know that we know their protocol and trust us to qualify the viability of the need to test each bat before we bring them in.  This testing can bring peace of mind and avoid expensive rabies vaccination regimens for you, your family, friends, tenants, vacation rental guests, cleaners, property managers, realtors showing your property, prospective property buyers or anyone else who visits a structure where bats are active.
