Think you may need professional Humble wildlife removal and wildlife control services? Are you hearing scratching in the attic or the pitter-patter of feet running across the ceiling? Noise in the attic typically means trouble and if you are a homeowner, the wildlife control solution typically is more expensive the longer you wait. We offer professional solutions for wildlife in homes, attics, and animals causing property damage.
Humble Bat Removal and Exclusion
Wildlife like bats in an attic can be a nightmare. Not only do bats cause structural damage with the accumulation of guano, but they also present health risks. It’s a well-known fact that bats are carriers of rabies and can transmit this fatal disease with an unnoticed scratch or bite. Did you know that bat droppings can also be a health hazard? Bat guano hold toxic spores called Histoplasma capsulatum, that when inhaled can cause a lung infection called histoplasmosis.
Bat removal in Humble TX is typically done in a multi-step process. First, we inspect the home to find all of the bat entry points as well as areas that are potential entry points. After all of the openings are located, a seal up is performed to funnel the bats down to only using the main entry points. At these points, bat excluders are placed, which are one-way valves that allow the bats to exit and not re-enter the structure.
Once the bats have been removed from the structure and the remaining opening are sealed up, any necessary guano clean up must be done. This is for multiple reasons. Mainly because of the health hazards involved with bat droppings and the dangers of sweeping them up or using a conventional vacuum to get rid of the guano. Another reason is that bat guano can weaken drywall and destroy attic insulation. If enough bat droppings have accumulated, the ceiling can come down from the weight and corrosion.

Bird nesting can carry bird mites, ticks, fleas and parasites.
