Capture, relocation, caulking and decontamination of bats

Capturing a bat

Did you know that, of all the wild animals affected with rabies, bats have caused the most human deaths in North America in recent decades? The rabies virus can be transmitted by bite, or scratch. It can also be transmitted if the eyes, mouth or nose come in contact with secretions from an open wound on the animal, or if persons themselves have a sore that comes in contact with the saliva of the infected bat. Once transmitted, the virus travels to the brain and reaches the nervous system, causing inevitable death.

We respect the appropriate regulations, since several laws protect animals and require their relocation rather than their extermination.

Bats: general information

Other types of extermination

How to get rid for good of bats:

  • Capture them manually with the help of specialized tools
  • Find entry points and perform caulking and other work
  • Decontaminate to remove all traces of odors to avoid attracting other bats and to ensure that no harmful spores are in the air in your home.

Bats: know them better

Learning more about the bat will allow you to better understand its dangerousness. As a bat exterminator on the South Shore of Montreal, we know how to locate and catch this animal safely. We are well aware of its reactions and what baits, traps and methods to use to capture a bat.

Here is some useful information about bats:

Type of animal

bats are flying mammals (the only ones in the world!). There are 8 species in the province, all with different colored fur and different shaped ears

HIBERNATION / MIGRATION

In October, bats hibernate or migrate south, depending on the species. They can hibernate in attics, in house walls, barns, sheds or as well as garages. Once a month, they wake up to wash and drink. In the past decade, a disease called white-nose syndrome has appeared in bats and causes them to wake up from hibernation more often than they should. Waking up from hibernation too often requires a lot of energy and decimates bat populations. This is why the bat is a protected species and cannot be exterminated.

Food

Bats are nocturnal animals. They therefore hunt insects at night. They can also feed on fruits.

Reproduction

Bats mate in the fall and winter. However, ovulation and fertilization take place the following spring. Litters are one to four young, depending on the species. The little one can fly after 3 weeks.

A bat exterminator on the South Shore of Montreal must know the habits of these animals to better manage to capture the bat quickly and safely.
