Shreveport Snake Removal & Shreveport Snake Trappping

If we have to set traps we only set live traps like the one pictured to the right. This trap allows the animal to enter in search of food , get caught , and be removed from the property without being harmed. This trap is safe to set because it cannot hurt the animal and also it cannot hurt any little kid fooling around with it. We take great pride in placement, this keeps the trap hidden from public eye, and keeps a trapped animal safe and not stressed. Groundhogs and wood chucks are living under the porch, trapping and concrete exclusions can solve your problems.

Bats Hibernating in Your House during the winter

Bats flying in your home - winter

Winter Bat flying Activity - Do Bats Hibernate?

During Louisiana's winter months, some people experience bats getting into their living quarters.  These people have a colony of bats hibernating in their attic or walls and a bat exclusion is necessary for their removal. 

Is this the only bat in the house? No.  The species of bat that hibernates in Northwest Louisiana homes are the Big Brown Bat and the Brazilian Free Tail Bat.  This species live in colonies. 

In order to survive the cold Louisiana winter months, bats must hibernate.  This is due to the fact that there are not enough insects flying around in the winter to support an active metabolism.  Bats require specific temperatures for hibernation ranging from 35-45 degrees Fahrenheit.  Brazilian Free Tail Bats have figured out that attics can provide the perfect temperature for survival and have adapted to hibernating in attics rather than caves.

If the hibernacula temperature is too warm, then they expend too much energy. If the temperature is too cold, then the bat colony will freeze in the cold winter months.  Generally, this means that they need to snuggle up under insulation to get near the warm side of a ceiling or wall.  This is why you rarely see bats hanging in an attic in the winter - it is just too cold for survival.  People who have a colony of bats in their home often describe a "scratching" sound or occasionally get a bat inside their home.

During hibernation (or more accurately torpor), Brazilian Free Tail Bat commonly wake up every couple weeks.  During this awakened period, they may move around or even fly short distances.  During this time, they may accidentally exit a gap in a recessed light fixture, cold air return, open attic hatch or wall.  People commonly report finding bats in bathrooms and bedrooms.  Many of our customers are thankful to hear that bedrooms, bathrooms and family rooms are not suitable for bats in the winter.  This is due to the fact that there is little food (flying insects) for them to eat.  If they stayed awake in a warm home, without hibernating, then they would starve.  

We can begin the bat exclusion process during the winter months.  Once the weather warms the colony will leave your home naturally at the first opportune time.  Louisiana's weather is unpredictable, and we never know exactly when this will occur.  We do not recommend that you wait until Spring, since our schedule books quickly and we just can not predict when a colony will decide to take to flight.  During the winter, we periodically get warm spells and completing the work is possible. As you can imagine, we take advantage of these times to work through a backlog that develops due to the cold wet weather.

Bossier / Caddo bats can contract rabies, just like dogs, skunks and horses.  Rabies is a deadly viral disease of the central nervous system.  The virus typically is passed on through the bite of an infected animal.  It can also be transmitted if a rabid mammal’s saliva enters an open wound or comes in contact with mucous membrane. The virus travels through the nerves, rather than thorough the bloodstream and reaches the brain in a period of weeks or months. Rabies is a potentially fatal disease unless treated quickly.

There are many rumors about bats and rabies, one of these rumors is that all bats carry rabies. Only a small percentage of bats catch rabies, but they die of it just like any other animal.  All potential rabies exposures must be taken seriously, consult your physician for medical advice.  North Louisiana Health Department, “If you wake up in a room with a bat present, regardless if there is evidence of a bite or scratches, seek medical attention.  If at all possible trap the bat for rabies testing.  Do not release the bat.”

Bat bites can go undetected because their teeth are very small and do not leave easily recognizable wounds. If you wake up with a bat in your bedroom, seek medical attention. Unless the bat is captured and tested, we find that physicians recommend post exposure vaccinations. One of the reasons to remove a bat colony from your attic or other unwanted place is to reduce the risk of getting bats inadvertently into your home.

Bat Removal and Bat Control – Ark-La-Tex Exclusion Services

Ark-La-Tex bats generate a natural fear among many people. They’re mysterious creatures that can be unnerving when they are in your Ark-La-Tex home, condo or church.  An experienced bat removal professional can quickly determine where bats are entering your home and formulate a humane strategy for their removal. People are most likely to encounter nuisance bats when a roosting colony takes up residence in a building. Attics often make excellent habitat, as do barns. Bats need only a half inch or less of space to crawl through in order to enter a building. Once inside, if the habitat is good, the colony grows until the homeowner notices the bats flying out of the building, notices the droppings in the attic, chimney, outside, or even basement (when the droppings fall down the walls). Sometimes a bat will get lost and find its way out of the attic and into the living area. Occasionally a transient bay may also fly into a house. Getting rid of bats requires experience.

The goal for complete bat removal is to provide a one-way exit for the bats, which may require working high above the ground on a two-story ladder, or navigating steeply pitched rooflines.  One-way bat exclusion doors are vital to avoid completely sealing the home and trapping bats inside. Trapped bats become desperate and are masters at seeking alternative routes outside, possibly landing them right in your living room.

Successful bat removal requires the skills of a properly trained professional to ensure that they don’t get back inside through a different location.  Complete sealing of a home's roofline and vents is required to prevent entry.  Due to the complexity of performing proper bat removal, many people find that exclusions are outside the scope of a do-it-yourself project.  Safety is a prime reason to consider a professional.  All of our trucks are stocked with equipment such as ladder hooks, pivits, and boots which improve safety.  Our Ark-La-Tex Technicians receive annual fall protection and ladder safety training that are specific for our industry.

Choose a bat removal company with proven results - and rest easy in your bat free home.  Additionally, we are one of the few local companies that specialize in bat control. These credentials are often of value since many homes have a need to control mice and we can tackle the entire job. During your initial inspection, we will review your home and identify active and potential entry points for bats.  A written inspection is provided for your review.  During the initial visit, we inspect the attic and the exterior for bat activity and formulate a plan for bat removal. Bat removal is the most complex tasks in the field of nuisance wildlife removal. I myself trained for three years on over 150 bat control projects with a professional in the field before I started my own NWCO Company, and I continued to learn even today, if it CAN happen it will happen.
