How to get rid of bats

Bats which somehow enter our homes want to be comfortable during the day time. They do not like light and prefer the dark, coolness of an attic. Night times are loved by bats since they are nocturnal creatures and pursue their food only during these times.

Prevention is better than cure and hence you need to ensure that they do not make their way into your home. First and foremost, check whether your attic has been sufficiently sealed and filled in, if there are cracks so as to prevent bats from entering your home. Make sure that your chimney trap is in good condition and also check out for any cracks or crevices. Cracks or crevices in holes should be filled in with either cement or concrete so as to prevent entry of bats.

The greatest disadvantage which bats face is that they cannot nibble the material and make their way inside your home. Ensure that the bats have left the home, before you do the final sealing. The ideal time to seal the crevices or holes is during the night when they would be busy hunting.

Bats do not like fiberglass insulation, so if you do not have any installed in your attic then you may consider doing so if bats are a huge problem. You can also leave on the lights or use a fan in the area as this will deter bats also.

Some bird repellents will also work to keep bats away when it is applied to the area around entrances. While bats can be harmful, they generally only create a nuisance. The only advantage of having a bat in your home is that they eat the other possible pests which infest your home.
