Bat Exclusion Service Agreement

One common question with bat exclusion work is concerning guarantees or warranties. Some wildlife control firms offer long term guarantees, be skeptical if long term guarantees are being pushed to sell a job.  Guarantees are only as good as the company honoring them. First, investigate to determine if the company is authorized to transact business in Michigan and is in good standing with the State.  This is a strong indicator of the resilience of the company.

If a company is pushing a guarantee, then get the guarantee in writing before you hire the company.  Be critical and ensure that it covers all aspects of the job. Does it describe what will happen if the bats are not sucessfully evicted on the first attempt?

Critter Catchers takes a different approach...

Our flat rate exclusion is quoted to your entire home and includes a 1 year service agreement. For those customers who begin an exclusion during the winter hibernation months (Nov-March), we provide a 1 year service agreement from April 15, giving you several extra months to account for their hibernation period.

During the agreement period, if you experience bat activity inside your home (post eviction), we will return to your home and take necessary measures to ensure the bats are properly evicted for no added cost.  This requires teamwork, so please give us a call if you suspect bat activity in your home (such as scratching noise).  Having a bat enter a home should be as rare of an occurrence as having a bird enter the home.  So if you discover a bat inside, we want you to call us for a re-inspection, so we can solve the problem.

When the service agreement expires, you can maintain a bat-free home by regularly inspecting your home for cracks and sealing any new openings. We also offer a maintenance program at a significantly reduced rate.  The maintenance program provides an economical way to continue our relationship and maintain a bat-free home.  Through the maintenance program, you may choose to extend the service agreement over multiple years - 3, 5, 10 or more!

Please note that during the winter months, bats hibernate in walls and attics. If we perform an exclusion during this time, the bats will not be evicted until Spring, when they fly out in search of food. We have a nominal charge to remove bats from the living quarters during this time.

During the summer months, bats fly on a regular basis. If you suspect bat activity, then promptly give us a call.
