NOTES

At Dennison Wildlife Control we are able to humanely exclude bats from your home while simultaneously protecting your family, pets, and your number one investment, your home. 

If you wake up in the middle of the night with a bat in your room/living space confine the bat to the room or area as best as possible and contact Branden at 815-621-3485 for emergency response to attempt the hand capture of bat. A top to bottom follow-up inspection is necessary to identify roosting, entry points, and the extent of damage/cleanup necessary.
