When can bat exclusion be done in Chattahoochee Hills? +
April or September through mid-October only. May-August is maternity season — exclusion traps non-flying pups.
Are tricolored bats in Chattahoochee Hills really federally protected? +
Yes — Perimyotis subflavus is federally proposed for ESA listing. Tricolored bats appear along the Chattahoochee Hills corridor at higher density than anywhere else in Fulton, requiring species-specific federal-status protocol on any encounter.
Do you handle bat removal on Chattahoochee Hills barn structures? +
Yes — multi-structure bat work on rural and equestrian properties is a Chattahoochee Hills specialty. Main house chimney plus barn loft colonies are routine.
How much does bat removal cost in Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia? +
Bat exclusion in Georgia typically costs $400–$1,500+ for the exclusion work itself. Guano cleanup and attic decontamination — required to eliminate the health risk from Histoplasma-contaminated material — adds $1,500–$8,000+ or more depending on colony size. Chattahoochee Hills properties with large, long-established colonies are at the higher end of this range.
Are there legal restrictions on bat removal in Georgia? +
Yes. Bats in Georgia are protected under state law administered by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. Bat exclusion is prohibited during the maternity season — typically May through August — when nursing pups cannot fly. Performing exclusion during this period is illegal and traps pups inside, causing a serious decomposition problem. Contact us now to get on the schedule for the legal exclusion window.
Is bat guano in my Chattahoochee Hills home dangerous? +
Yes. Bat guano supports the growth of Histoplasma capsulatum, a fungus that causes histoplasmosis — a serious respiratory illness documented in Georgia. Disturbing dry guano releases spores into your home's air. Do not sweep, vacuum, or disturb bat droppings. Professional cleanup with respiratory protection and proper disposal is required.
I found one bat inside my house in Chattahoochee Hills — do I have a colony? +
A single bat inside living space usually entered from an attic or wall void where a larger colony roosts. This is one of the most common bat calls across Georgia. A professional inspection can determine whether you have a colony above the ceiling. Any bat that may have had contact with a sleeping person should be tested for rabies — contact Georgia Department of Natural Resources for guidance.
How do professionals remove bats in Georgia? +
Bats are not trapped — they are excluded. One-way exclusion devices are installed over every entry point so bats can exit but not re-enter. After all bats have departed — typically 3–7 nights — the devices are removed and all gaps are permanently sealed. The Georgia colony is never harmed, and all work follows Georgia Department of Natural Resources guidelines.
