Port Hueneme wildlife control tip of the month:

How to Kill a Bat

Bats are protected species, but some people using Port Hueneme animal control lethal traps, poisons or fumigants choose to kill them in order to save their houses from bats invasion.

Glued cardboards and wooden pallets are mostly used in order to kill bats. The glued pads are constructed on the walls, roofs or floors and when bats are lending landing on them they get stuck and painfully wait for their death. Even though it may solve the bats problem but it is very inhumane Port Hueneme animal trapping way to kill a bat because of the suffering they will endure.

Another way of trapping a bat is body-gripping trap which kills the bat in seconds with a strong mechanical blow. Even though, the bat will not be suffering for a long time, it is again very inhumane Port Hueneme wildlife removal and illegal way to kill a bat. Poisons are also used killing the bats. There are no poisons made for killing these mammals, but people tend to use insecticides for this matter. However, killing bats with poison may cause additional problems to the household. Poison may not work on all the bats and those who stay alive may crawl through the walls to your house. As bats are rabies carriers their existence in your house can create biohazard conditions. Others bats may not survive and die in the walls, leaving very bad odor and again creating hazardous environment for the whole family.

Using fumigants is also a Port Hueneme exterminator way to kill the bats. Fumigants are sprayed in order to suffocate or poison the bats. However, most of the fumigants used are as much poisonous for humans as they are for bats. Use of the fumigants also causes additional problems. After the spraying one has to get rid of the killed bats, otherwise leaving them to rot will cause bad odor. Also, spraying fumigants once will not make all the work. Not all of the bats will be killed as they tend live in colonies. Spraying the Port Hueneme pest control fumigants twice will more likely make damage to your health too.

All in all, killing bats is time consuming, dangerous for human health, expensive and not entirely effective. As already known, bats are protected species and killing them in most of the states is illegal. Also, there are other ways to keep the premises protected from bats invasions. Using netting and sealing of the entrances of the house are known to be effective ways in getting rid of the bats.
