Finding unexpected wildlife in your home can be unsettling especially when those visitors are bats. If you’re a Minnesota homeowner or business owner noticing bat droppings or hearing rustles in the attic, then you’ve landed in the right place. At Minnesota Wild Animal Management we bring decades of experience to safely remove bats, clean up after them, and protect your home. Here’s what you should know.
Why Bats Can Be a Problem
Bats are fascinating creatures the only mammals capable of true flight but they’re not meant to live in your walls or attic. In Minnesota, only a couple species, such as the Little Brown Myotis and Large Brown Bat, tend to roost in homes. These tiny mammals can squeeze through cracks as small as 3/8‑inch that’s a gap smaller than a dime. Once inside, they leave behind guano (droppings) that can carry serious health risks; histoplasmosis, a lung-affecting disease, being chief among them. And of course, there’s always the concern of rabies from direct contact.
Why Professional Bat Guano Cleanup Matters
Getting rid of bats isn’t as simple as shooing them out one by one. Minnesota Wild Animal Management underscores that exclusion physically blocking entry points is the only reliable, humane solution. Simply trapping or relocating bats often fails, as they’ll find their way back home thanks to strong homing instincts.
Once bats are gone, though, the job isn’t over. Guano isn’t just messy—it can harbor harmful fungal spores and attract parasites. Proper cleanup requires training, safety gear, and sanitation protocols that only professionals should handle.
