Bats
One of the many pests that strike fear in the homeowner is the Bat because they are associated with vampires, voodoo, disease, rabies and of course for getting tangled in your hair. Well most of these associations are false and give the Bat a bad reputation. While exposure to disease and rabies is a real concern, Bats are an important element of our eco system and play a major role in controlling insects.
One of the best ways to control a bat population is to place Bat Houses around the property to provide a conducive nesting site. Exclusion is the best method of control as there are no poisons or chemicals registered for control and trapping is not practical. Bats are a real problem in residential and commercial structures and should be handled by a professional.
Century Termite & Pest Control Service provides a control program to help eliminate Bat infestations in structures by exclusion. Call us for an estimate at (703) 406-4695 for Virginia or call 301-946-8400 for Maryland or email us today.
