Mondays Madness-  Bat Junk in the Trunk-  Fun in Home Inspections

Wenatchee Home Inspections.

Today’s fun is called “Holy Bat Junk in the Trunk”.

It can drive you batty controlling bats. If they are roosting in your attic you will need to deal with it.



Bat guano can pose a few different risks,
1) excessive weight on ceiling structures
2) disease by contaminated materials.

Removal is not risk-free as it may simply spread contamination elsewhere.

Exclusion of Bats is the best way to control bats and is also the safest, both for the bats and the homeowners.

Remember you should always have a qualified person, contractor or professional to do your work. Always get permits for work requiring it.

Hire a qualified home inspector to review the work as another set of eyes to ensure everything is safe and correct.
