Send Bats Away With Bug Bully Bat Control
Bats are flying mammals found in almost every region of the world, and they’re generally considered to be highly beneficial to their environments. However, when bats are found nesting in your Massachusetts business or home, it’s difficult to think of them as beneficial.
Our Bat Removal Service
Professional bat removal service that utilizes the “one way door” method of exclusion is a humane and effective approach to safely remove bats from a structure while ensuring they cannot re-enter. This method aims to encourage the bats to exit the building through a one-way device, typically a specially designed flap or valve, without allowing them to re-enter.
Here’s a step-by-step overview of the process of our service:
Inspection and Assessment:
Professional bat removal starts with a thorough inspection of the property to identify entry points, bat roosting areas, and assess the extent of the infestation.
Sealing Entry Points:
Before installing the one-way devices, all potential entry points are sealed, except for the primary exit points. This prevents bats from re-entering the structure through any other openings.
Installation of One-Way Doors:
One-way doors, typically made of durable materials like plastic or metal, are installed over the identified primary entry and exit points. These devices allow bats to exit freely but prevent them from re-entering due to the design of the door.
Monitoring and Observation:
Professionals will monitor the one-way doors to ensure the bats are effectively leaving the structure. This may involve observations during evenings when bats are most active.
Removing One-Way Doors:
After a suitable period, once it is confirmed that all bats have exited and are not attempting to re-enter, the one-way doors are removed.
Final Sealing:
The remaining entry points are permanently sealed to prevent future bat re-entry.
Preventative Measures:
Recommendations for preventative measures are often provided to the property owner to deter bats from returning to the structure. This may include habitat modification, improving building conditions, and implementing deterrents.

Joe did a great job would definitely recommend Michelle NewmanAugust 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recommend Bug Bully to everyone! We are new customers and new to the area and we've become customers for life now. Mike came exactly when quoted, he was very friendly, and very knowledgable about our wasp issue. He was efficient and went above and beyond to make sure we felt confident. He even answered a quick question about another smaller nest (thankfully just a bird's doing!). Thanks Mike! Nancy SmithAugust 14, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I definitely recommend Bug Bully for pest control. Their response time, sharing of knowledge, and service is great. Joe Doucet, their technician, was very professional and thorough when addressing my recent carpenter ant issue and also several months ago for mice in the attic.

Joe Doucet arrived in the window provided, did a thorough assessment, made some recommendations for service and was very professional. Nick MassaroJuly 30, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Joe come by to place mouse and ant traps. He was kind and professional, answered my questions thoughtfully, and did his job quickly. We’ve caught a few mice so far. Thanks Joe! Randie ChiavelliJuly 26, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bug Bully is fantastic! I am severely allergic to bee/wasp/hornet bites, this week I was stung by a wasp and had to use an EPI pen immediately! The next day once I was stable I reached out to Big Bully and David on his DAY OFF arrived at my house within an hour to assess our wasp nests issues. He thoroughly explained the behavior of bees, wasp, yellow jackets et all, walked around the house with me to show me the activity of nests being built and what the wasp were doing; as an example, taking a rest on our roof over our window bump-outs on the first floor. He is so knowledgeable , kind and showed true concern to what happened. I highly recommend Bug Bully as well as David and Mike, top notch all the way! Megan AndersonJuly 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went from seeing a couple carpenter ants a day to well over 50 and called Bug Bully to help us out. They were able to squeeze us in on short notice and Joe came out and treated our house inside (bait) and outside (spray). He was very professional and took time to ask me questions about what we were seeing and confirm all the places that we wanted treated. I expected it would take a few days to notice a difference and honestly thought we might end up needing to spray a nest we knew was inside but it’s the second day after treatment and I haven’t seen an ant yet today! Joe assured me that we could let them know if the problem persisted, but I’m hopeful we’re in the clear for a while. We will definitely be giving them a call when we need our house mouse-proofed this fall!

What are signs of bats in my home?
Bats are known to find areas to overwinter, typically from October 16th to March 31st. During this period, as the weather becomes colder and insect activity decreases, bats seek out hibernation sites to conserve energy and survive the winter. These hibernation sites are often caves, mines, tunnels, or other sheltered locations that provide a stable and cool environment.
Bats go into a state of torpor during hibernation, which is a state of decreased metabolic activity and lowered body temperature. This helps them conserve energy and survive on their fat reserves until warmer temperatures and increased insect availability prompt them to become active again in the spring.
It’s important to note that specific behaviors and timing can vary slightly based on the species of bat and the local climate conditions. Different species of bats may have variations in their hibernation patterns and preferred overwintering sites.
Bats are flying mammals found in almost every region of the world, and they’re generally considered to be highly beneficial to their environments. However, when bats are found nesting in your Massachusetts business or home, it’s difficult to think of them as beneficial.
Are bats protected?
According to state law, there are very specific times of year that you can legally get rid of bats that are nesting in your home. The lifecycle of bats native to our area dictates the times that exclusion work can take place and the times that exclusion work cannot take place.
Exclusion may take place:
- April 1st – April 30th – bats may be present, but pups are not yet born
- August 1st – October 15th – bats may be present, but all bats should be flying
- May 1st– July 31st – motherless bats and their flightless pups may be present in the roost
- October 16th – March 31st – bats find areas to overwinter
