Signs of Roosting Bats<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Bats are small, which makes them good at hiding, but are not\nvery good at staying hid, as they tend to leave behind signs that reveal their\npresence. One of the most common and easiest-to-spot signs is their droppings,\notherwise known as guano<\/em>. Although bat guano is often mistaken for rodent\ndroppings, you can quickly tell the difference by taking a closer look. Bat\nguano is much larger than rodent droppings, which are generally pellet-like.\nBat droppings looks more similar to that of a small dog rather than a rodent.\nIn most cases, they are in large accumulations, which is not typical of rodent\ndroppings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another common sign of bats nearby is scratch marks or grease-like\nstains on the shutter faces. This indicates that bats are flying and rubbing against\nthe shutters on a regular basis. Another sign is actually witnessing them enter\nbehind your shutters. You can safely assume they have made a nest and intend on\nstaying there for a long time if you see this happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To get rid of bats roosting behind window shutters, your safest and most humane option would be to use their sense of smell against them. Bats hate scents that are strong-smelling and stinky, and will avoid them at all costs. During the daytime, make sure the void behind your shutters is empty, then stick some cedar wood chips inside. This will most certainly divert their interest in this spot. See our blog, “These Household Spices Can Keep Bats Away!<\/a>” for some more scents bats hate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you check behind your shutters and there is a bat there, immediately walk away and contact a licensed Louisville bat removal company. There are several state and federal laws that govern bats, and you do not want to jeopardize your legal liability. Furthermore, some bats are federally-protected, such as the Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalist), which are common here in Kentucky. See our blog, \u201cKentucky Laws About Tampering With Wild Bats<\/a>\u201d to learn more laws about bats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your cedar wood chips do not seem to work, you can always remove your shutters for a year, and therefore, remove your location from their memory.
