🦇 It doesn’t take much space for a bat to make itself at home!

From torn gable vents to tiny cracks along your roofline, even the smallest opening can become an entry point. And once they’re in, those quiet spaces in your roof can quickly become the perfect place to roost.

Common spots to watch:
• Gable vents with damaged screens
• Eaves and soffits
• Dormers and chimneys
• Broken shingles
• Spaces behind gutters

A quick exterior check can go a long way in protecting your space. Learn more about what to watch for and how to help protect your home in our blog! 🏡

Your roof is a natural roosting spot for bats. To identify when bats have infested your roof and safely remove them, contact Critter Control today!
