Bat Exclusion

Exclusion term in bat removal and wildlife control

What is Bat Exclusion?

The process of preventing bats from re-entering a structure by sealing entry points while allowing existing bats to exit safely.

Bat exclusion is the primary method for humanely removing bats from structures. It involves installing one-way doors or exclusion devices over active entry points, allowing bats to exit naturally but preventing their return. This process is typically combined with sealing secondary access points to ensure long-term prevention. In Maryland, exclusion timing is restricted during maternity season (April-August) to protect young bats that cannot fly.
