Bat Removal from Attics in Phoenix, AZ
Bats enjoy staying in attics because it provides them with a warm temperature during the winter months and this can be a problem for homeowners. An infestation of bats in your attic can be hazardous to the health of your household and can damage your property.
By staying in attics, bats probably have left droppings called guano. These droppings can be corrosive and contain bacteria that could cause human illnesses including Histoplasmosis or any number of respiratory problems. In addition, bat guano can also lead to a mold problem as well as structural damage to your home. This can deteriorate the roof inside an attic which leads to leaks during rainstorms. They can also contaminate the insulation in an attic and lead to toxic fumes when it becomes heated during the summer months.
Wild animals like bats can enter through open doors or windows. Other possible ways they can get into your home are through holes in screens, construction cracks, and gaps around chimneys.
If you have bats in your attic then wildlife control professionals recommend a bat removal process which will entail installing one-way exclusion devices to prevent them from re-entering. The exclusion device is usually installed on an opening or hole where airflow forces the bats to exit through the opening and prevent any wildlife from re-entering.

Phoenix Bat Removal vs Extermination
If you discover a family of bats on your property, your first instinct might be to remove bats through extermination — but that’s not the right approach. Bat infestations require humane wildlife solutions, not harmful methods that put these important creatures at risk. Most Phoenix pest control companies lack the training and certification needed to handle bat problems, which is why it’s best to call professionals who specialize in wildlife removal services.
Instead of killing bats, the safer and more effective method is exclusion. This involves installing one-way doors or bat windows that let bats leave but not return, often paired with providing alternative roosting areas nearby. These techniques protect both your property and the bats, while also ensuring the problem doesn’t come back. If you need expert help to remove bats and safeguard your home or business, contact AAAC Wildlife Removal of Phoenix today for humane wildlife solutions that work.

Phoenix Bat Control and Damage Repair
The best method of removing a bat is with an exclusion technique. Rather than attempting to lure a bat into a trap, it would be better to force it to leave and never let it return!
The exclusion devices should be installed by professionals for optimal success because they’re designed to fit the dimensions of each hole. We begin our animal removal procedure by figuring out how a bat gained access to your house. Once the entry holes have been created, one-way doors are installed. So, when they leave in the evening to hunt, your bats won’t be able to return to your house.
Here is how we handle a bat exclusion:
- Spend a LOT of time identifying each entrance hole into your house
- Set up one-way doors at every entry points
- Verify that we’ve excluded all of the bats in your attic
- Seal all of the entry points
- Decontaminate your attic to remove all of the harmful guano
- Change insulation (if required)
- Fix any indoor or exterior damage

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Animal Control kill bats?
Phoenix Animal control will not kill bats. Bats are federally protected in the United States, so they cannot be killed without a federal permit. Animal control services in the Phoenix area usually refer to a bat problem to nuisance wildlife control companies that offer bat control solutions.
Are bats protected in the State of Arizona?
Absolutely! Bats are protected under two different categories: endangered and legally protected. Bats are an important part of Maricopa County and the state of Arizona. Were you aware that bats can eat over one-thousand mosquitos an hour? It would be a dark day if we lost all of our bats. They also make up a fifth of the planet’s mammal population. After rodents, they are the second most common mammal.
What is bat guano?
Bat Guano is a different term for bat droppings. The droppings are little and can appear similar to rats’ droppings. The droppings of bats may also appear as clumps on surfaces in their roosting areas such as between sheets of roofing felt or inside ceilings. Bat droppings may also be found on window ledges and ground surfaces that are frequented by these animals. If you shine a flashlight on them after breaking the droppings apart (please use gloves!), you’ll see them sparkle or a twinkle in the light.
Is bat guano harmful to humans?
Be very cautious around bat guano (once more, gloves people!) as it can transmit a fatal fungal infection known as histoplasmosis. You can inhale it just by being anywhere near guano, so we really suggest you let specialists with proper safety equipment handle an attic cleanup.
