The Bat Guys

General

Dead Animal Removal

Insects and Spiders

Ants
I wanted to create this page to discuss a common misconception in the industry/marketplace. We often get calls from people seeking "bat exterminators" or "squirrel exterminators." This comes from the age-old idea that anyone who deals with any type of pest is an exterminator (be it squirrel exterminators, raccoon exterminators, skunk exterminators or bat exterminators). The correct use of the term "exterminator" would only be in the pest control industry. Exterminators deal with ants, cockroaches, bed bugs and other types of insects. We deal with bats, squirrels, flying squirrels, skunks, raccoons and birds. We do not exterminate these animals. We use humane procedures to remove them and then animal-proof the structure using mechanical techniques to ensure that they do not return.
Bed Bugs
Fleas
Cockroaches
Bees
I refuse to spend all day on the phone talking about what MIGHT be going on and blurting out inaccurate prices for a job that I know nothing about. To do so is just foolish. A noise in a ceiling or wall can be anything from a mouse, raccoon, bat, squirrel, flying squirrel, bees nest or even a branch scraping against the roof or siding. A thorough home inspection takes all the guess work out of these situations and allows us to provide accurate quotes for our customers every time.
Wasps
Fact - Traditional bat houses in Massachusetts and Rhode Island have less than a 5% success rate in attracting bats. They do however have a great success rate at attracting wasps and hornets!
Mosquitoes
"We like bats, I mean, we realize that they eat mosquitoes and that they are an important part of the environment but we just don't want them in our house!" Then I am asked the Bat House Question -
Flies
No. Two things can happen if you block a skunk's entry point: They will either dig around the blocked hole, creating more damage, or they will be trapped under the house or shed and die right there. If you thought you had a problem when you had live skunks, you'll have twice the problem when you have dead skunks under the building. If the carcass can't be removed you may end up with months of unpleasant odors, flies and maggots. A live skunk is much cheaper to remove than a dead skunk. See our skunk removal page for more information.
Hornets
Mites
An attic that is full of old, dusty, contaminated insulation is not only a potential health hazard to the home's occupants but it is also unusable. Who would want to store their belongings amongst filthy insulation, years of dust-mites and animal droppings? Reclaim your attic and turn it into useable space with our insulation removal and attic cleanout services.

Animal Control

Bats
Bat Removal in Massachusetts and Rhode Island - Getting Rid of Bats and Bat-Proofing BatGuys Expert Bat Exclusion Services
Raccoons
This case study shows a typical raccoon removal in Massachusetts. In this case an adult female had taken up residence in this customer's chimney and gave birth to five young. The customer had complained about "noises in my fireplace" and "scratching above my damper.". She said that it sounded like a nest of baby birds. Right away I knew that this was raccoons in the chimney and not a nest of baby birds.
Snakes
The New England Herpetological Society - I do not do any type of snake removal or snake control services. When someone calls me with a snake issue I usually send them here. On this site you can identify your snake and learn about reptiles and snakes in Massachusetts.
Wildlife
I frequently get calls from people who are looking for their town's animal control office. People call me when they have lost their dog or cat or to tell me that their neighbors dog has been without food for over a week etc etc. After I explain to them that BatGuys is a wildlife control company and not a state-funded animal control facility they always ask "well, do you have the number for my town's Animal Control office?" I created this listing to help people find the phone numbers that they are looking for. Now when they call me thinking I'm the Animal Control office, I refer them to this page.

Bird Control

Birds
Sometimes. In certain situations we can utilize pigeon netting and other bird control products to provide a solution to these problems. We do most of our pigeon control in Boston, where the pigeon populations are highest. The first step in the process is conducting an inspection of the premises. Once this is done we can propose a solution. Please contact us for further information.
Woodpeckers
Sometimes. Woodpeckers are federally protected. There is a long, tedious process one must go through to remove a woodpecker. Contact BatGuys for more information.
Pigeons
Pigeon Control: We have pigeons all over our roof and the droppings are making a mess. Is there any hope for this situation?

Rodent Control

Rodents
Does not use poisons that kill rodents and could also possibly harm your family and pets. (
Mice
BatGuys provides mice control services for the greater New Bedford area. We use mechanical techniques to mouse-proof houses and buildings. BatGuys is a poison-free company. Please visit our Massachusetts mouse control page for more information.
Rats
BatGuys Wildlife Service provides rat removal in Boston Ma and Providence RI. Our rat control services are structured to provide long-term solutions to rat problems. We specialize in rat-proofing homes and buildings without the use of rodenticides (poisons).
Squirrels
"We were unwillingly running a bed and breakfast in our eaves. Squirrels and birds were living it up in there! Fed up, we got 4 estimates before opting to go with the Bat Guys and we are happy we did. Bat Guys were very reasonably priced and also backed up their work with a 1 year guarantee. More importantly, we were very impressed with the professionalism and expertise the team demonstrated. I also like the fact that they embrace technology as evidenced by the quick response time to my emails (from work) and when they showed up at our house using a laptop with a GPS receiver!"
Chipmunks
Chipmunks are ground-dwelling squirrels and cannot climb very well. Very rarely do we get calls for them inside houses. When they do get into houses they usually show up in the basement and they usually enter through large holes in foundation of the home.
