Michigan Bat Control & Wildlife Solutions

At Michigan Bat Control, Inc. we provide full service home inspection to identify your nuisance bat problem. If you have bats in your attic or other wildlife we will locate the nest and the entry point. We will give a written explanation of the problem identified along with an itemized price list of all the necessary repairs needed to solve your wildlife problem. Home inspections include; roof, attic, perimeter, foundation, chimney, and overview of your home and wildlife problem. Average inspection takes 30-40 minutes depending on the style of home and scope of your nuisance wildlife problem. Often times services can be provided at the time of the inspection if there is enough time to provide full service with out being rushed. It is very important to make sure all repairs are done thoroughly to prevent reentry of the wildlife. All or a portion of the service and inspection fees are applied towards the total cost of the live bat exclusion. Free competitive bids for bat inspections will be provided for certain areas depending on drive time and length of inspection. Prices very home to home depending on the number of repairs needed, style of home, pitch of roof, and an over all hardness of the job.

Prices for wildlife control vary home to home and building to building. Many factors are considered when pricing jobs for animal control services. Location, proximity to a technician, the type of animal, and the severity/ complexity of the problem aresome factors for pricing a wildlife control job. First and foremost an inspection/evaluation is recommended to decide what the best technique is to get the job done safely and humanely.  Not all jobs are as simple as setting traps and catching the animal.  Birds and bats are typically evicted from your home through an exclusion process which involves more than just setting traps. Repairs are made allover the home to prevent the return of the birds or bats.

Residential, commericial, industrial, etc. We do it all. 

We were called to a residential home in Leonard, MI by a homeowner who thought he had a bat problem. Upon inspection of the home we identified a flying squirrel problem. Flying squirrels are nocturnal animals, so that is why the homeowner thought he was hearing bats. Once we identified the problem animal in the attic, it was time to take action.

Trusting a contractor and getting good work for a fair price is most important when hiring a contractor. When choosing a wildlife control operator in Michigan you ultimately make your own decision on this matter. In hiring a wildlife control expert to solve your pest problem, you should do a little research first.

Everything can be noticed during your first conversation with a company. The old saying "first impressions are everything". Most companies you call should know what they are talking about when you contact them. I mean that is their profession and "expertise" right? Knowing the details of your situation is the most important part of the initial phone call. This will give us an understanding of the job at hand. Most of the time a ball park price can be given so you know what you are up against. For those who won't give you a price, then they might not know what they are talking about. Some companies are more interested in getting the initial service call fee then actually getting the job done right.  Getting answers from the company you are calling is key. Does it sound like the operator knows what he or she is talking about? Is the person you are talking to sound polite and organized? I mean you called them for help right? Patience is everything during the first phone call. You will have several questions so it is important for the operator to stay patient and answer everything as thorough as possible.

Are you a pest control company or wildlife control company? 
These industries may seem much a like, but in all reality they are much different.  Pest control companies use pesticides or rodenticide to get rid of pest. Most pest control companies are experts in insects and not wild animals or rodents.  Spraying poisons or poison baits can actually make your wild animal problem worse. We are a poison free company to protect your home and family.

Are you Licensed and Insured?
Licensed by the state of Michigan is required to run a wildlife control operators business. Our license number is RC 1019. Note: You do not need a pesticide applicators license to get rid of nuisance animals. Having liability insurance, bonds insurance, and workers comp insurance is key for protecting you and your home. We carry a million dollar liability insurance. 

Do you provide an attic inspection during your evaluation? 
This is the most important part of the inspection. Damages, entry points, and health concerns can all be answered with an attic inspection. If there is no attic space we carry an inspection camera on our trucks to scope all nooks an crannies of your home.

Do you offer repairs as part of your service? 
Getting rid of the critter is only the first step in wildlife control. Making sure the animal doesn't return is the most important step. We are a full service wildlife control company and provide wildlife prevention to keep all wildlife out.  

Do you offer an attic or building clean up service?
Once the animals are trapped and the repairs are done, the next step is to clean up the mess. This isn't always needed, but if it is make sure your wildlife control company can take care of this task. We offer full attic restoration service.  Shopping around for another restoration company can be a pain. 

Is your work guaranteed and for how long?
Providing a good warranty on the repairs performed is as good as gold.  Limited warranties will not protect your investment. All exclusions and repairs we perform are warrantied for five years. 


Who is coming to my house?
Knowing the technicians name can be beneficial so you know who to expect at your home.  Sometimes it's hard to really know who is coming out, because knowing what technician is in your area isn't always known. If you don't know who the technician is at least know what kind of vehicle to expect. All of our vehicles are dark grey and red, marked with "Michigan Bat Control Inc."

When can you come to my house? 
Patience is good, but often times nuisance wildlife will not allow for patience. Some emergencies can not wait days for a technicianto come out. Don't get me wrong wildlife control is very time consuming if done right, but there should always be a technician available. If there is not we will always recommend someone in your area to help you.  Problems in the attic or walls you have had for many years can sometimes wait. For instance if your looking to have a bat removal expert like our team you may want to wait to have an experience technician to your home rather than waiting for an inexperienced person to your home. 

What prices do you Charge? 
What most people care to know and for that matter I myself ask the same question when hiring a contractor.  Cost is very important, but make sure you understand what it is you are paying for. Are you getting a full service wildlife control company. There are a lot companies offering free home inspections, but what are they actually doing for you? They may be incapable of obtaining work so they have to offer free inspections to get out to your home.  We charge for an inspection fee, but we are often able to roll all or a portion of that fee into your total cost of the job. for more information on pricing click here.
