Legal, Efficient Bat Removal That Keeps Bats—and You—Safe

Bats are a vital part of Florida’s ecosystem, but when they roost in attics, walls, or rooflines, they can create serious health hazards and structural damage. Worse, Florida law strictly protects bats, meaning improper removal can lead to legal penalties.

At Wildlife Works, we offer licensed, seasonal-compliant bat removal in Central Florida, including full inspection, one-way exclusions, and sealing of all future entry points.

Common Bat Issues We Handle

Bats often enter homes and buildings through small cracks or gaps as narrow as 3/8 inch. We routinely address:

Bat colonies roosting in attics or soffits
Guano (bat droppings) accumulation that damages insulation or causes respiratory risks
Strong ammonia-like odors from urine buildup
Scratching or chirping sounds in walls or ceilings at night
Visible bat flight patterns at dusk, often around vents or rooflines
Pre-maternity season activity, when removal windows are limited by law

Florida prohibits bat exclusion from April 15 to August 15—so planning around the maternity season is essential.

Our Bat Removal Services Include:

Detailed attic and exterior inspection to confirm activity
Legal exclusion timing to avoid breaking state protections
Installation of one-way bat valves that let bats exit but not re-enter
Sealing of all entry points after colony exit
Cleanup of guano and scent markings to prevent re-infestation
Documentation for insurance or property records
Follow-up visits to confirm colony removal and structure security

We use no poisons, traps, or lethal methods, ensuring both human and bat safety.

Florida Bat Laws and Your Liability

All bat species in Florida are protected. That means:

You cannot kill bats or block their exit while they are inside
You cannot remove bats during the maternity season (April 15 – August 15)
You must use licensed professionals with knowledge of one-way exclusion and state regulations

Improper action—even unintentional—can lead to fines or legal repercussions.
