Local knowledge
Bats in Darby
Older houses
Many Darby houses are older twins and rowhomes. Bats get in under the cornice, at the porch roof and around the chimney.
Shared roofs
On a twin or a row, the bats may get in on the house next door. We look along the whole roofline before we fit the exits.
What to look for
Signs of bats
- Bats flying out of the roof or the chimney around dusk
- Small dark droppings on windowsills, siding or the attic floor
- Dark stains around a small gap at the roof edge
- Squeaking or rustling in a wall in the evening
- A bat inside the house
Before we arrive
Until we get there
- If a bat is loose in a room, close the door, open a window and keep children and pets out.
- Do not touch a bat with bare hands.
- If someone may have been bitten, or a bat was found in a room where someone was asleep, call your doctor or the health department.
- Do not seal gaps yourself in summer. Young bats that cannot fly yet would be shut inside.

How the job goes
1 · Find the gaps
We look over the house and, when needed, watch where the bats come out at dusk.
2 · Fit one-way exits
The bats can fly out at night but cannot get back in.
3 · Seal the house
We close the other gaps they could use, then take the exits down and close those gaps last.

We tell you the price of the first visit on the phone before we come out. It depends on your ZIP code.
