Bats entering through a roofline gap require a specific, legally timed exclusion process, since many species are protected during certain months of the year. A denning female with young behaves very differently than a lone adult passing through, which is why our technicians assess behavior patterns, not just species, before deciding on a removal timeline.
A technician identifies the species first, since raccoons, squirrels, and bats each require a different legal and humane approach.


Every technician handling Gettysburg wildlife calls carries state wildlife control licensing and liability coverage.
We keep same-day slots open for active wildlife situations, especially where an animal may be trapped inside a structure.
Pricing covers trapping, exclusion, and entry-point repair as one flat quote — not billed separately per step.
Our exclusion materials include heavy-gauge hardware cloth and sealant rated for permanent structural gaps.
Raccoons often den in attics and chimneys to raise young, so removal timing accounts for dependent litters before exclusion begins.
Exclusion work includes repairing chewed soffit and vent damage that squirrels use as repeat entry points.
Opossums frequently den under decks, sheds, or in crawl spaces, so trapping focuses on those specific access points.
Bat exclusion follows strict seasonal timing to avoid trapping flightless young inside, in line with state wildlife regulations.
Wildlife damage repair covers soffit, vent screening, and insulation affected by nesting activity.
Commercial wildlife accounts include recurring exterior checks for new entry points across a property portfolio.

Tell dispatch whether it's attic thumping, chimney noise, or under-deck activity so the right equipment gets loaded.
A technician arrives with humane traps and exclusion materials suited to the suspected species.
Inspection includes checking for dependent young before finalizing a removal and exclusion timeline.
Humane removal and one-way exclusion go in the same visit where possible, with entry points sealed for good.
Heavy thumping in the attic turned out to be a raccoon with young, and the technician handled the timing carefully so nothing was left trapped inside.
Appreciated that they explained the regulations around bat removal instead of just doing whatever was fastest.
Having documented reports for each building helped us track which units needed exclusion repairs.
The technician found an old vent gap we'd never have spotted ourselves as the actual entry point behind the attic noise.

Timing matters too: bats are typically heard at dusk when they leave to feed, unlike raccoons which are active at night generally.
No — without sealing the entry point, another animal typically moves in within weeks, so exclusion is part of every job.
No — many bat species are protected during certain months to avoid separating flightless young from the colony, so timing follows state regulations.
We use humane cage traps and one-way exclusion doors designed to relocate or release animals without harm.
Timing is adjusted to avoid trapping young inside once the parent is excluded.
Yes, we offer damage repair for chewed wiring, insulation, and entry-point structural issues after removal.
