"We had a single bat removal from our home. They came same day and it was taken care of quickly. And they took the bat to the University of Minnesota to test for rabies. I have confidence they can handle any wildlife issue professionally."

"I was afraid squirrels had gotten into the soffit. They determined it was not squirrels, but bats. They were able to eliminate the bats in the roof without harming these important insect predators. Would use them again if an issue arises."

"George and his sons were excellent. they returned calls promptly and were able to seal up our very old Victorian house after a bat and squirrel incident. Not only were they professional in every way, but they were kind and understanding about working on an old house and with many children around during their hours. Their prices are very fair and, I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for pest removal. Its also nice to support a local family run business! Thanks!"

"Great! After calling five companies for quotes (three of which never called back), Nate called right away. And, after talking to him and getting my questions answered, he came out that same day! Nate was very professional and thorough, he sprayed around my house and removed the bird nests. We haven’t had a bird mite since. I would definitely hire Defender Pest Control again!"

"Larry and his team have been taking care of both our Cabin and our Home for over 10 years. We previously had a well known national pest control company that treated the symptom of our problems without getting to the cause of them. We had mice (mouse?) issues, the national company brought traps, Larry took the time to figure out where they were getting in and eliminated it. We use Blackhawk’s annual plan for both Home and Cabin, and couldn’t be happier ."

"The crew did a wonderful, thorough job in cutting down one tree including the stump and pruned a second tree. They cleaned up everything when they were finished. John and Keith were very friendly and suggested some additional trimming be done, to which we agreed. Good to have the second tree limbs pruned so they wouldn't touch or damage our roof in the future."

Today’s job is a removal of a tree hit by lightning.
We are just about to hook a limb and cut it off, swinging it over into the street for cut up and haul away.

FAQs for bird and bat pest control service projects in Minneapolis, MN

Bats slip through gaps as small as 1/4 inch, so your best defense is a thorough seal-up and a few simple habit tweaks. Start by caulking or screening every crack around chimneys, eaves, and vents. Swap dim porch bulbs for brighter LEDs or motion lights (bats dislike the glare), and consider an ultrasonic deterrent if they keep circling. 

Finally, remove easy snacks—cover standing water and skip the nighttime bird-feeder refills. These steps go a long way toward keeping your home bat-free.

Standard homeowners’ insurance rarely pays for bat removal because insurers view it as routine maintenance. You might get partial help for guano cleanup or related repairs, but that varies by policy. Review your insurance policy carefully and contact your provider for a definitive explanation. Securing all entry points remains the homeowner’s responsibility to prevent future incursions.

The sweet spot for bat exclusion is late summer through spring. That window keeps you inside most state rules and protects baby bats that haven’t learned to fly yet. Removal activities are conducted when bats are less active, with some states permitting work from August through May and others ceasing removal in March. Consult a qualified bat removal specialist to confirm the valid timeframe for your area.

Spotting a dead bat can be unsettling, but a calm, careful approach keeps everyone safe. First, call your state wildlife office to report the find and ask about local rules. Snap a quick photo from a distance, then—wearing disposable gloves—place the bat in a sealed plastic bag for disposal as directed. 

Wipe down nearby surfaces with disinfectant, wash your hands thoroughly, and schedule a pest-control pro to make sure no live bats (or harmful guano) remain hidden in the house.
