Did you know a deadly fungus is threatening bat populations across North America? 🦇

White-nose syndrome is a disease that affects hibernating bats, disrupting their winter rest and depleting the energy reserves they need to survive.

This international bat week, learn more about this disease, how it spreads and why protecting bat populations is so important! https://loom.ly/zfAv2T8

White-nose syndrome has reached B.C. See what Coquitlam homeowners should know about bats and why professional removal and prevention matter.

This International Bat Week, learn five interesting facts about bats that you might not know! https://loom.ly/rKFeBzM

🦇 Happy International Bat Week!

Did you know bats play an important role in keeping insect populations under control? A single bat can consume hundreds of insects in just one night!

As temperatures drop, many bat species begin looking for sheltered places to spend the winter. Learn more fun facts about bats in our blog! https://loom.ly/UBDYRyE

Are little brown bats endangered? Our latest blog post dives deep into everything you need to know about them. Learn more.

Where do bats go when the temperature drops? 🦇🍂

Depending on the species and location, bats may migrate or move into protected places to hibernate. As their activity becomes less visible, homeowners may assume a summer bat problem has disappeared—but the openings bats used can remain vulnerable.

It's imperative to never seal a suspected bat entry point without knowing whether the space is clear. Trapping bats inside can create a more serious problem.

Bats are better neighbours than their spooky reputation suggests. 🦇

These fascinating mammals play an important role in healthy ecosystems by helping manage insect populations. They’re also the only mammals capable of true flight!

Protecting bats doesn’t mean allowing them to live inside our homes. Humane wildlife control gives bats the opportunity to leave safely while helping homeowners keep attics and walls protected.

Bats belong in the night sky—not inside your attic.

International Bat Week begins today! 🦇

Bats play an important role in our ecosystems by helping manage insect populations. They’re valuable neighbours—but when they move into an attic or another part of a home, the situation needs to be handled carefully.

From understanding fall bat activity to spotting hidden entry points and completing humane exclusions, we’ll be sharing bat facts, field footage and homeowner advice throughout the week.

Follow along throughout the week as we celebrate bats, protect homes and promote safer coexistence.

“How much will it cost to mouse-proof my home?” It’s one of the first questions homeowners ask—and we understand why. 🐭

Unfortunately, an accurate quote can’t be provided over the phone because every property is different. The home’s size, exterior materials, weep vents, roof vents, number of entry points and condition of affected areas can all change the scope of the work.

Our technicians complete a thorough on-site assessment to determine:

- How mice are entering
- What other areas are vulnerable
- Whether cleanup or attic remediation is needed
- What materials and repairs will provide long-term protection

Once the assessment is complete, we explain what we found, review the recommended options and provide a quote based on the property’s specific needs.

Traps and poisons may address individual mice, but they don’t close the routes allowing more to enter. Learn about Skedaddle’s customized approach: https://www.skedaddlewildlife.com/services/mice/

🐿️ Hearing squirrels running across your roof? It might seem harmless, but how can you tell if they're causing damage?

Squirrels can chew through roofing materials, damage vents and create openings that allow them into your attic. Learn how to tell the difference between squirrels simply passing through and signs of a bigger problem! https://loom.ly/OU4Pt18

Squirrels running across your Newmarket roof may be passing through or causing damage. Know the signs that can point to an attic entry problem.

🐿️ Did you know squirrels can use nearby tree branches to access your roof?

Once they reach your roofline, squirrels may take advantage of vulnerable areas or even chew their way inside! Learn how squirrels get onto your roof, what makes your home attractive to them and how to prevent unwanted attic visitors.https://loom.ly/x9hW1LM

Squirrels can reach Coquitlam roofs using branches, fences, utility lines, and walls before finding weak spots that may provide attic access.

A quick patch isn’t always a long-term solution. 🏡

Traps, repellents and sealing the most obvious opening may reduce activity temporarily, but they don’t always address how wildlife is using the property—or where else animals could get inside.

Professional animal-proofing looks at the entire home. We identify active entry points, check for animals already inside and protect other vulnerable areas with durable materials designed for wildlife exclusion.

Contact Skedaddle for a solution that addresses the source of the problem.

Another baby raccoon, gently removed from a home here in ! That's Skedaddle Humane Wildlife Control Technician - Pat Bergeron. The babies were removed from the home's attic, a place commonly used by mother raccoons to nurse their babies through the early stages of life.

Pat and his Skedaddle colleagues are experts in humanely removing baby raccoons from property nests. They ALWAYS safely reunite babies with their mothers outside the home. THEN, our team seals off all potential entry points into the home so that raccoons (or even rodents) can not return.
