Potential Dangers of a Dead Bat<\/font><\/h1>\n

Although bats are incredibly important to our surrounding eco-systems and local economies, they are known carriers of various infectious diseases; the most prominent, the Rabies virus. The problem with a dead bat is that you have no idea what led to its fatality. It could have been caused by natural forces, such as old age or falling out of a tree. But it could also be from a disease like Rabies. For this reason, the number one rule to follow if you ever find a dead bat is to never touch it with your bare hands. <\/p>\n

What You Should Do<\/font><\/h1>\n

When you find a dead bat, the first thing you need to do is clear the area so that pets and children are safe. Mark off the section of the lawn with cones or tape, and then notify everyone around to stay away from the marked area. From there, you can choose one of two routes: you can attempt to move the bat yourself using a very strict and careful method, or you can contact a Louisville wildlife rescue and control company<\/a> for dead bat removal service. They have the proper permits, training, and equipment to safely remove the bat and transport it to the proper authorities. <\/p>\n

If you suspect that your dog, cat, or child came into contact with the dead bat, it is important to have the bat tested for Rabies. Again, a wildlife rescue and control company has these available resources and can manage the task for you. While the bat is being transported and tested, it is vital to have your pets and children examined by a medical professional to ensure they are not infected or harmed.<\/p>\n
