I've scared them off and sealed up all of the possible entrances that I can find but the winged rodents keep finding their way back in and nesting.
How can I permanently get rid of these bats? Their dung is posing a serious health hazard (already been diagnosed with histoplasmosis).

Buy a fake owl. It works like a scarecrow. The head of the owl is usually bobbing around, spinning as if it's watching. An owl is a natural predator of the bat, and the owl's presence will scare the bats away. I've seen these for sale in Sloutions Catalog, but also at Walmart Garden center. Some even have battery-operated heads, so they head spins every few minutes to scare the birds/bats away.
Put 1 or 2 in the attic. If they are still hanging around, mount one outside, up high soemwhere, like on a light pole or on top of an arbor or something.

It will also be not legal to get rid of them. They don't harm estate they usually certain as hell can't do you any damage. This could sound thoroughly counterproductive to you, however touch the bat conservation believe. There are measures that may be taken to prevent bats getting into residence home windows (that is in most cases a mistake on their segment, whilst aiming for an establishing to the roost. Boards will also be installed function to direct them to the correct establishing. And those measures are legal. Also, roosts have a tendency to be used at one of a kind situations of the year. They can ship someone out to you to affirm what time of year your roost is occupied, and for those who fairly wish it blocked off, they're competent to recommend you as to how and whilst for the period of the yr this may also be accomplished LEGALLY. I had been aspect of those surveys myself. That you would reassure your daughter that the bat has no purpose of harming her, and whilst it is going to get in, easily close off the doors to that room and open the window. They are going to usually leave fairly quickly. There could also be really no have got to fear approximately it even though. It's simply bats. They're lovely innocent. The EBLV threat is much tinier than you can feel from the media. They don't gnaw, they do not provide in nesting materials. They make very little noise and their droppings are dry and do not damage estate. Plenty of places positioned down sheets in roost places, and easily shake it out at the time of year their roost is unnocupied. However for individuals who relatively want the bats out, the Bat Conservation suppose can aid you with that. If that's your point of view i'm hoping you get arrested, hauled by way of the courts and paid to pay for what you want to do (and the fines are very enormous) you disgusting, egocentric man or woman. Who the hell do you take into account you probably?

they hate light , so put in a large window or a bright fluorescent light fixture. calling a pro exterminator would work too.
