About Fort Lauderdale Bat Removal

Welcome to fortlauderdalebat.com. We are the only qualified bat removal company in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Dealing with pest animals is work that can be quite specialized, and while there are many people who will offer to help you in this regard, we take a slightly different approach and try to offer a solution that will keep pest animals away for the future as well. We have been providing animal removal services to homeowners and businesses in the city and surrounding area for nearly ten years, and have developed our strong reputation on being able to provide a rounded service. Naturally we have efficient techniques and methods for dealing with the pest animals but also provide the supporting service that will get the property back to the standard it was before the animal infestation. Depending on the situation, this can include high quality building repairs to animal damage, cleaning and sanitization of the space the animals were present, and the sealing of any holes to stop animals from getting back into the property. We also have the experience to be able to deal with more complex animal removal work such as dealing with a bat colony, as well as the more common pest animal issues such as rats and mice. We are very proud of how efficiently we can deal with a bat infestation in the attic, as our exclusion techniques can remove all of the bats present without harming them, and stop them from getting back in. So if you are looking for a professional, family-run company to deal with a pest animal problem for you, give our friendly team a call today. We operate 24-7-365, so don't hesitate to call us at 754-243-8009 to discuss your bat problem and schedule a fast appointment.

Residential

We are experts at removing bats from residential properties. Whether you have a single bat trapped in your house, a colony roosting in your attic, and/or various other problems, there is no need to worry! During our removal process, we make sure to inspect your entire home carefully, tracking down all the entrypoints bats are using to invade your place. Next, we perform a process called live exclusion (where no bats are harmed and all exit your property), then seal all entry holes completely shut. We also take care of the cleanup process after, so your home is safe and clean!

Commercial

Besides residential areas, we also have a wealth of experience removing bats from commercial properties! We begin by investigating the area for possible bat entrances, covering holes even as small as 1/4 of an inch. Through our live exclusion process, bats leave the building through one-way exits, and we seal up every hole afterward. Once the bats have been removed, we perform a cleanup process. This includes dealing with guano, replacing damaged insulation, and decontaminating the place.

What Our Customers Say



All About Big Brown Bats

The big brown bat might remind many of the little brown bat, but there are some key differences between them. Size, life span, and appearance all differ. Another key difference is that, unlike the little brown bat, there are differences between big brown bats, as well.

They both live in North America and are somewhat common, and you may have seen the big brown bats at some point. While they are more common in certain areas, they exist all over the continent.

If you have some on your property, do not fear. They may be big in name, but they are still somewhat small animals. They are also entirely harmless, for the most part, and are unlikely to go near humans.

Appearance

When you hear the name big brown bat, you would think that these are going to be big and brown. It seems obvious, but it is not always the case.

Big brown bats are bigger than their little counterpart, but they remain somewhat small. Their bodies are about 5 inches, with wing spans at about 15. Sizable for a bat, but not giant.

Their fur is not always the same color, either. Unlike little brown bats, each big brown bat can have different fur colorings, from blonde to dark.

Other parts of their appearance remain what you would expect. Pointed ears, small eyes, sharp teeth, and a snout.

Life

Big brown bats can live to up to 20 years, sometimes beyond that. They can live for a long time naturally, assuming they are not picked off by predators.

There are some differences in how long they live, with some going well into their 20s. The average life span remains at 20, though.

Habitat

Big brown bats prefer warmer climates. In the southern United States and in Mexico, you are most likely to see them roaming around.

You can find them up north, but they are not fond of winter, so it is rarer. They like to be where it is warm and where the insects are plentiful, which means heat, with Mexico being by far their most popular home.

Diet

Big brown bats are insectivores. They love wasps, beetles, and all other types of insects. Living in places of high heat, finding insects is far easier for them. They tend to eat well year round.

The big brown bats are not just bigger than their little counterparts, they have a few other differences, too. They are a unique type of bat that has some unique needs and habits.
