WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT BATS

Austin’s bat colony is cool — until they’re in your attic.

Most bat issues in Austin homes are Mexican free-tailed bats — the same species that famously roosts under the Congress Avenue Bridge. Here’s what makes bat exclusion different from every other animal we handle.

What you’ll notice

Signs of bats

  • Guano piles in attic corners — bat droppings are dark, dry, and crumble easily. Different from rat droppings (softer, oval-shaped)
  • Sharp ammonia smell — urine and guano in insulation, gets stronger in summer heat
  • Sounds at dusk — bats leave the roost in waves at sunset, especially May through October. Flapping, chittering as they exit
  • Brown staining around gaps — oils on bat fur leave dark marks at 1/2-inch+ entry points where they squeeze in and out
Why bats are different

Legal & seasonal nuance

  • Extermination is illegal in Texas. Bats are protected. Killing them or using poison is a state and federal offense — exclusion is the only legal option
  • One-way exclusion doors — bats fly out at dusk through a temporary device, can’t get back in. The humane, legally compliant method
  • Entry points are tiny. Bats can enter through gaps as small as 1/2 inch — gable vents, dormer flashing, where roof meets fascia. Sealing means finding every one

Hearing or seeing any of this? Tap to call — we’ll inspect, identify the species, and time the exclusion legally around the season.

“I highly recommend Texas Rodent. They were professional, honest, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. We had rats getting into our attic, and they found every entry point, sealed everything up, and handled the whole process humanely. They explained everything clearly and never tried to push us into a long-term contract. We haven’t had a single issue since. Definitely give them a call!”

“I can honestly say I highly recommend Texas Rodent. The guys were so professional and communicative. I had an issue with squirrels and a raccoon getting in my attic and they humanely relocated them and sealed everything up. No more problems! There was no pressure to sign any type of contract etc like I’ve experienced with other companies. Definitely call them. They are on it!”

“Texas Rodent did an amazing job. We had squirrels getting into one of our rental properties, and their team showed up quickly, communicated well, and took care of the problem the right way. They humanely removed the animals, sealed the access points, and made sure we understood what was done. No pressure, no upselling, just solid work. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone dealing with rodents or wildlife.”
