Expert Bat Exclusion and Removal in Rochester, NY

Bat exclusion and removal is one of the most common wildlife calls JN Wildlife Solutions handles across Rochester, NY. The Little Brown Bat and Big Brown Bat are the two species most often found roosting inside local homes. Many Rochester properties, especially older homes with aging fascia, open soffits, and deteriorating roofline gaps, give bats easy access through openings as small as three-eighths of an inch. Our process starts with a full exterior inspection to locate every entry point. We then install one-way exclusion devices that let bats exit at night but block re-entry. Once the colony has cleared, we seal all openings to stop future access. We also remove guano and treat affected areas, since accumulated droppings carry health risks including histoplasmosis. New York State prohibits exclusion work during the maternity season, so we schedule all work within legal windows set by the NYSDEC. If bats have entered your living space, contact JN Wildlife Solutions to schedule an inspection.

Bat Exclusion and Removal FAQ

Common questions about bat exclusion and removal in Rochester, NY.

Bat exclusion is legal in Rochester outside the NYSDEC maternity season restriction, which runs June 1 through August 15. JN Wildlife Solutions schedules all exclusion work within the approved windows to keep your project compliant.

Bats enter Rochester homes through gaps as small as three-eighths of an inch along rooflines, open soffits, fascia boards, attic vents, and chimney edges. Older homes in the Rochester area are especially prone to these entry points as building materials age and shift.

Bats are a known rabies vector species in New York, so a colony in your Rochester home is a health concern that should be addressed by a professional. Do not handle any bat directly, and contact JN Wildlife Solutions to inspect and remove the colony safely.

Bats will attempt to return to a previous roost site, so permanent sealing of all entry points after exclusion is what stops re-entry. JN Wildlife Solutions closes every identified gap after the colony clears to prevent bats from getting back into your Rochester property.

Bat guano left in a Rochester attic can grow a fungus that releases airborne spores linked to histoplasmosis, a serious respiratory illness. JN Wildlife Solutions removes accumulated droppings and treats the affected area as part of the exclusion service.

Signs of a colony in your Rochester home include guano piles below a single entry point, staining on siding, and multiple bats visible exiting the roofline at dusk. A single bat found indoors may have entered from a gap connected to a larger roost above.

Amazing experience! We had mice in our attic, and before we found JN Wildlife, we tried one of those typical pest companies. They did barely any exclusion and just relied on poison baits. That did not keep the mice out, and the poison was so inhumane. Thankfully we found JN Wildlife! They don’t use poison, and they seal up your house to keep the mice out completely. It’s been almost a year and we haven’t had any mice since. They also did a complete attic clean out, sanitization, and replaced the insulation. Truly a great experience, and would recommend them to everyone I know!

These brothers are the real deal. My wife was bugging me about a noise in the attic while we were sleeping, I even saw a squirrel in my living room while I was working from home. Called these guys up and they gave me a free quote, and once I accepted, they treated my roof and my foundation. They are super professional and even more so, they are very personable. I hope I don’t have to hire them again, but if I hear any noises, these guys are on speed dial!

I called Wildlife Solutions when I heard a strange noises in the attic. They investigated and found evidence of bird nests. They quickly and efficiently cleaned and sanitized my attic. We have not heard anymore noises coming from the attic. They did an excellent job and we are grateful that we decided to call their business.

After multiple attempts by another company, JN Wildlife was able to successfully fix our bat issue in a 180 year old brick building in a matter of hours. They were great to work with- quick, thorough, knowledgeable, and fair pricing. I have nothing but great things to say and would use them again in a heartbeat.

We had some issues with bats in the upstairs of our 2 story house. After getting quotes from a couple companies for bat exclusion, JN Wildlife came in at a great value for the scope of work. They were quick to get the job done and we have not had bats in the house since they conducted their work! It's been over a year, so that's a good sign. Thanks!
