Bats are a protected species in Texas because they help control insects and contribute to a healthy ecosystem. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department enforces laws that prohibit harming, trapping, or relocating bats, except in cases of public health concern. That means every exclusion or eviction must safeguard the animals, especially mothers and pups, in accordance with state law. Our entire process reflects these requirements and relies on methods recognized and approved by both state and national authorities. By working with 911 Wildlife, you meet all legal standards and keep your property—and Fort Worth’s natural balance—safe.

The Critical Mistake of Sealing an Entry Hole Yourself

It is a common thought for many Fort Worth homeowners: if you see where the bats are getting in, why not just seal the hole and be done with it? While it seems like a simple and logical fix, this is one of the most significant and potentially dangerous mistakes you can make. Attempting a DIY sealing job often creates a much worse, more complex, and more hazardous situation than the one you started with. Professional bat control is about understanding the entire problem, not just patching a single symptom.

🔻 The primary and most immediate danger is trapping bats inside your home. Sealing the main entry point doesn't make the bats disappear; it simply locks them in. A trapped bat colony will panic and desperately search for any other way out. This frantic search often leads them directly into your living areas—bedrooms, kitchens, and living rooms—creating a frightening and direct health risk for you and your family. What was once a contained problem in the attic has now become an emergency inside your home.

🔻 Furthermore, if the bats cannot find a new exit, they will die within your walls or attic. This leads to a powerful and pervasive odor of decomposition that can be incredibly difficult to locate and remove. A decaying colony will also attract secondary pests like flies, maggots, and other insects. This scenario is particularly tragic and inhumane during the spring and summer maternity season, as it means trapping helpless, non-flying pups inside to die while their mothers are sealed out.

🔻 Crucially, bats are a protected species in Texas. They play a vital role in our ecosystem by consuming vast quantities of insects, including agricultural pests and mosquitoes. Because of their protected status, it is illegal for an unlicensed individual to trap, harm, or kill them. An improper DIY sealing that results in the death of a bat colony is not only inhumane but can also lead to significant fines and legal penalties. This is why the work must be done by trained professionals in Fort Worth who follow state-approved guidelines.

Finally, a DIY approach almost always fails because homeowners seal the one obvious entry point they can see but miss several others. Bats can squeeze through a gap as small as 3/8 of an inch, and they often use multiple, tiny access points. Our professional process ensures every potential entry is identified and sealed after we have confirmed every bat has left safely.

FAQs


Are bat removals in Fort Worth regulated by state law?

Yes, Texas law protects bats, and regulations prohibit harming or relocating them except for public health situations. Our team always follows humane exclusion practices and observes all required wildlife laws.

Are bats actually dangerous to have in my home?

While bats themselves are not aggressive, their presence poses health risks that should be addressed by professionals. The primary concern comes from their droppings, or guano, which can harbor fungal spores that cause the respiratory illness Histoplasmosis when inhaled. Although the risk of rabies is very low, it is a serious concern if direct contact occurs. For these reasons, and to prevent odors and contamination, having a colony professionally and humanely removed is the safest way to ensure your home remains a healthy environment for your family.
