Bat Exclusion in Lancaster
Protect Your Home With Humane Bat Exclusion
Scratching or fluttering sounds at dusk in your attic, guano accumulating around entry points, and bats exiting from rooflines at sunset all signal a colony that's taken up residence. Eastern Wildlife Solutions specializes in humane bat exclusion, guiding bats out safely and sealing your Lancaster home to keep them from coming back.
Lancaster's historic row homes, farmhouses, and modern developments all share common vulnerabilities—ridge vents, chimneys, and aging soffits that bats exploit with ease. Bat conservation studies reveal that little brown bats can enter gaps as small as three-eighths of an inch, making thorough inspection essential. The team provides detailed roof and attic inspections, checking every likely entry point and identifying guano, staining, and light gaps that indicate active use.
You need a service that respects both your home and the ecological role bats play. Every exclusion is performed in compliance with Pennsylvania regulations, protecting bats while clearing your living space.
How the Bat Exclusion Process Works in Lancaster
One-way devices are installed at active entry points, allowing bats to leave but not re-enter. This humane method protects the colony while solving your problem, and it's the only approach approved under state law.
Lancaster's varied architecture—from Queen Anne Victorians to contemporary split-levels—requires tailored exclusion strategies. After bats have exited, sealing and repair work begins. Entry points are reinforced with durable materials that blend with your roof and siding, preserving curb appeal while ensuring long-term protection. Cleanup guidance is provided, and remediation can be coordinated as needed if guano accumulation is significant.
Research indicates that bat guano can harbor Histoplasma capsulatum spores, which pose respiratory risks if disturbed improperly. Call us today for bat exclusion in Lancaster.
