Bat Removal in Independence
Bats are protected under Utah law, so removing them legally and humanely is the only option. We provide a full bat remediation service: inspection, sealing every entry point, guano removal, and decontamination of soiled insulation. Our technicians use one-way exclusion devices that let bats out at dusk but block them from re-entering. After the colony is out, we seal the structure to prevent return. Every exclusion comes with a written warranty.
Utah Wildlife Specialists serves homeowners and businesses in Independence, Wasatch County, and across all of Utah. Call (801) 675-8829 to schedule an inspection and request a phone consultation. Same-day appointments are available.
Why is Professional Bat Removal Important in Independence?
Independence is a rural community in Wasatch County on the Wasatch Back between the Uinta Basin and the Heber Valley, where high-elevation sagebrush terrain and stream corridors support big brown bat and little brown myotis activity through summer. Scattered homes and agricultural buildings in this area often have open eave construction and deteriorated vent screens that provide bat access to warm attic and wall-cavity roost sites. Remote placement means infestations can go unaddressed for full seasons. Utah Wildlife Specialists covers Wasatch County, inspects both residential and agricultural structures, installs UDWR-compliant exclusion devices at active entries, and seals all identified gaps with durable material after the colony has exited.
What is included
- Inspection. We inspect the attic, soffits, ridge cap, and chimney to identify every bat entry point and assess colony size.
- Humane exclusion. One-way devices let bats out at dusk and block re-entry. No poisons, no harm to the colony.
- Guano cleanup and decontamination. We remove guano with HEPA-filtered equipment and decontaminate soiled insulation. Guano can corrode metal, stain ceilings, and harbor histoplasmosis spores.
- Written warranty. Every exclusion comes with a written warranty. If bats return through any opening we sealed, we come back at no charge.
Common questions
Are bats protected in Utah?
Yes. All Utah bat species are protected under Utah Division of Wildlife Resources rules. Killing or harming bats is illegal. Humane exclusion is the only legal way to remove a colony from a structure.
Why is bat guano dangerous?
Guano accumulates rapidly and can corrode metal, stain surfaces, and emit a strong odor. It can also harbor Histoplasma capsulatum, a fungus that causes respiratory illness. We perform complete guano removal and decontamination using HEPA vacuums and full PPE.
How do you exclude bats?
We seal every entry point except the main exit, then install a one-way device that lets bats fly out at dusk but blocks re-entry. After the colony is fully out (typically a few days), we seal the final exit and warranty the work.
What does the warranty cover?
Every Utah Wildlife Specialists exclusion is covered under a written warranty. If bats return through any opening we sealed, we come back at no charge.
How much does bat removal cost?
Pricing depends on building size, colony size, and the extent of guano cleanup. We offer a phone consultation. Call (801) 675-8829 to schedule an inspection.
When is bat exclusion done in Utah?
Bat maternity season runs roughly mid-May through mid-August. During that period, exclusion is restricted because flightless pups would be trapped inside. We schedule exclusions before mid-May or after mid-August. Inspection and planning can happen any time.
