If you have a bat infestation in your attic, you need them gone, like, yesterday. These nocturnal, flying animals love dark and secluded locations. If they have set up shop in your home, this poses a safety and health risk to you and your family. They will bite if they feel threatened or if they are not handled properly.
While their high-pitched squeals and screeches can be a scary nuisance in your attic, bats generally do not attack humans unprovoked.

The health threat of bats doesn’t stop at rabies. In fact, the fungi present in bat droppings can cause a lung disease called histoplasmosis. Aside from health concerns, bats can do a lot of damage to your home as well. With each bat capable of producing between 20 and 30 droppings a day, and with the tendency for bats to colonize in groups, the number of droppings on and in your home can be staggering. They pile up over time and can even cause your roof to cave in. Plus, their droppings will attract other pests like cockroaches.
Don’t let it get to this point. Call Green Force Pest Control at 208-391-3542 at the first sign of bat infestation. Our exterminators in Meridian can visit your home to conduct as assessment and create a plan for bat removal.
