<\/a>Do-It-Yourself Bat Control Tips<\/h1>\n\n\n\nExterior Sealing and Attic Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Bats love attics, wall voids, and even crawl spaces. Here in Indiana, bats can squeeze through an opening or gap as little as 3\/8th<\/sup> of an inch. With these two factors at play, it is important to protect your home from bat intrusions by implementing an exterior security plan. There are many products you can purchase online or at your local home improvement store that can help, such as attic vent covers, mesh screening, chimney caps<\/a>, and siding sealant. Although you can do this yourself, it is recommended to get professional assistance from a licensed and insured Indianapolis bat removal company<\/a>, especially if you do not have experience using ladders or performing handy-work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have bats in the attic<\/a> or bats in the house<\/a>, do not attempt to extract them yourself. Not only could this be against the law as many Indiana bat species are federally protected, but it can be dangerous to both you and the bat. Always contact a bat removal service<\/a> to get a bat out of the house or remove a bat infestation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bats use a natural, built-in biosonar known as echolocation<\/em>. They emit series of high-frequency sounds then analyze the reverberations that come back to them to conceptually map their surroundings. Because bats can pick up on an immense scope of frequencies, devices known as ultrasonic bat repellers have proven successful as a means of humane bat control. The frequencies emitted from the devices confuse, and therefore divert bats away from its location. You can purchase these electronic devices online from authorized retailers or even at your local home improvement store. They are generally installed outside of the house, on the siding or roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also make your own, homemade, all-natural, non-toxic repellent for bats. You will need a clean plastic spray bottle, at least 16 ounces, plus clean water, and ingredients that bats hate, like menthol oil, capsaicin oil, and eucalyptus oil. Combine all ingredients into the spray bottle and treat the areas where you know bats hang out, such as your door frame ledges, gutters, roof, trees, windowsills, and garage mortar. Just be sure to keep children and pets away from treated areas, as the solution can irritate the nose, throat, eyes, and skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Would you like some professional assistance securing your home or business against bat intrusions?
