🦇 It doesn’t take much space for a bat to make itself at home!

From torn gable vents to tiny cracks along your roofline, even the smallest opening can become an entry point. And once they’re in, those quiet spaces in your roof can quickly become the perfect place to roost.

Common spots to watch:
• Gable vents with damaged screens
• Eaves and soffits
• Dormers and chimneys
• Broken shingles
• Spaces behind gutters

A quick exterior check can go a long way in protecting your space. Learn more about what to watch for and how to help protect your home in our blog! 🏡

Your roof is a natural roosting spot for bats. To identify when bats have infested your roof and safely remove them, contact Critter Control today!

Bats often enter attics through gaps in roof shingles, mortar, vents, and gable vents. If left unchecked, their droppings, known as guano, can pose health risks by spreading airborne diseases.

Watch for these signs of bats in your attic:
✅ Piles of guano in the attic, insulation, roof, or gutters
✅ Stains on ceilings or walls from urine
✅ Strong ammonia-like odors
✅ Smudge marks or oily streaks on walls
✅ High-pitched squeaking noises

🦇 Wondering if bats might be sharing your home? Keep an eye out for tiny droppings (guano), squeaking or fluttering sounds, and discolored stains near entry points.

🐿️ This time of year, squirrels are welcoming new kits! Born in litters of two to four, they rely on their mothers for up to 12 weeks.

🏡 Female squirrels look for warm, sheltered spaces like attics, chimneys, and wall voids, which can lead to activity inside homes. It’s best not to handle them yourself, even if they seem harmless!
