Bat exclusion and bat proofing

We have had bats inside our very old house a number of times a year for a few years now. After being awakened by a bat flying overhead for the first time this year, I decided that I was not willing to wait for another sighting. Instead, I stayed up and spent hours researching why bats may be in the house, where they might come in, and how to best bat-proof our house. I kept coming back to Kenny's website for Bats Canada, and realized that all of the services that his website promises were backed overwhelmingly by the numerous reviews. As a result, I had high expectations, starting with my initial call the same day...and Kenny didn't disappoint me! Kenny answered my call promptly; and with confidence and patience, he answered all of my questions. When I asked about the price, he checked my home on Google Earth while we talked, asked a couple of questions about our roof, and was able to give me an estimate range. He offered to come the next day, and I was thrilled. He called to let me know when he was leaving London; and then while en route, he called to let me know when he would arrive. From the moment that I met Kenny, I felt confident in my decision to hire him, he is obviously a professional. He arrived in a white van with no mention of bats on it, and in no time was ready to start the job. Kenny and Banos are both easy to have around, they are very professional, courteous and quiet, and the neighbours also commented about this. They worked nonstop for about 8 hours, with only a brief lunch break. In that time, Kenny was caulking, filling holes, making sure that flashing beside chimneys was adhering properly, adding mesh inside attic vents... He was able to find a number of places where bats have evidently been getting into the attic. He left one-way vents in those locations, after sealing the areas around them carefully. He also found a place that if it got larger, could let a squirrel in. He took time to make a mesh basket in order to stop this problem. I feel confident that Kenny has thoroughly bat-proofed our home, and we are hoping that within the next night or so, the bats will all have headed outside. We had none visit our living space last night! I was impressed that Kenny was able to stay on the lower side of the price range that he had suggested on the phone. He actually called today to ensure that we are happy, and to ask if we had had any bats come into our living space last night. I am confident that Kenny will stand behind his 5 year warranty, and know that he is just a call away. I know that many people may think that the cost is high, but one needs to consider that they had to drive to Owen Sound from London, and had to deal with a 100+ year old 2-1/2 storey brick house with a very steep roof, and another house that was very close. I also feel that "you get what you pay for." Thanks, Kenny and Banos!

Bat Removal

We've had a few bats enter our house every summer for the past several years now and I kept hoping they'd "just go away". they didn't - we had our first little visitor of this season last week (much earlier this year than other years) so I decided we needed to do something about this once & for all. I googled bat removal online and found Bats Canada Inc.'s website. i called them and spoke to Kenny. He offered to come out right away (due to my schedule we decided on two days after I called). He arrived and was very courteous and knowledgeable from the get go. He answered all my questions and explained in detail how and why bats enter the home. He and his work partner worked diligently for over 3 hrs. straight fixing up all possible entry points, screening chimney & roof vents and caulking all around the house as well as some other areas he saw as a concern - he even went above and beyond and fixed around my dryer vent outside which probably wasn't letting bats in but he said could be letting mice in. He also fixed up the flashing leading from my furnace to the cold air return in the basement which had come loose - this was something else he did as a thoughtful favour. I was completely and thoroughly satisfied and impressed with his work and work ethic. I truly believe that the job has been done right and that he would definitely honour the 5 year warranty if anything were to go amiss. Thank you so much Bats Canada for getting the job done - you have my full confidence and I've already mentioned you to some friends for future just in case they ever get visits in the night from our friendly neighbourhood bats.

Removal of Bats

We called Kenny after we started having bats flying around inside our house in the late winter. Kenny of Bats Canada explained all about bats in our house and how he could get rid of our bats, he made an appointment and came to our house and humanely stopped the bats from living in our house. The bats left the house as soon as they went outside in the spring and they couldn't get back into the house. We haven't had a single bat flying around our living space since Kenny was here. He came back and removed the one way bat doors. His service is excellent and if you have bats- hire Kenny and you will not have bats anymore. Kenny is honest, hardworking, reliable, prompt, quick to respond to a call and quick to solve your bat problem, professional, and thorough. Our house is bat free thanks to Kenny. And he backs up his service with a five year guarantee. I would recommend Kenny wholeheartedly to any friend with bats in their house.

Bat Control

It is so nice to find a company that lives up to its warranty. When Kenny says 5 years, he means it! My warranty had almost expired when a problem arose.Kenny found the source, and there have been no further problems. I highly recommend this company. Thank you, Kenny!

Pest & Animal Control

Bat Proofing / Exclusion
We bought our century home 4 years ago, and have been plagued with a half dozen or more ‘bat encounters’ every summer since. We called a pest control professional, and learnt the hard way that their exorbitant consultation fee provided us with little more than a considerable estimate with no guarantee of bat exclusion! After contacting Bats Canada and speaking with Kenny, we recognized our error in not having contacted him first. Kenny personifies the type of professional and knowledgeable contractor who is increasingly difficult to find. He provided us with the answers to all of our questions (no matter how dumb they may have been), educated us both on the issues that arise with bat infestation and the structural concerns that needed to be addressed in and around our home, and demonstrated a respectful and dedicated work ethic throughout. From the first time we contacted Kenny, to the time he arrived to do the work, he always communicated in a timely and friendly manner and kept us abreast of the timelines as to when the work would be completed. In early May, Kenny spent a very long day and a half repairing, sealing and securing the roof et all from future bat and squirrel entry! He diligently and thoroughly addressed and repaired a number of issues, both big and small, which he found as he meticulously inspected the roof in its entirety… no small feat considering the size and pitch of the roof. We were extremely impressed by the work performed. We are looking forward to our first ‘bat free’ summer.
We highly recommend Bats Canada! Thank you Kenny!

Bat Removal

We live in a big old house and when we moved in we had a terrible problem with bats. I tried three other companies first. All of them said they would get rid of the problem. None of them did. And none of them would come back. As soon as I spoke to Kenny, I knew I should have gone to him first. He was excellent. He came right away. It took him about 10 minutes to determine where the bats were coming in, and what needed to be done (none of the other companies even got that far!). He removed the bats in a humane way and we have not had a problem for years, though if we did I know he would come back and fix it. I recommend Kenny without reservation. He is the best there is.

Bat Proofing

Fabulous job! We have had bats in our roof for many years and last summer was the last straw. I found Bats Canada online and then spoke with Kenny who immediately assured me he could eliminate the bats from the house. Kenny worked tirelessly from 8:00am to 6:00pm sealing up our entire roof, including garage. The same evening, we watched bats trying to get back in, but they couldn’t. What a relief. Kenny is very knowledgeable and truly cares about his work. Whenever I have phoned him or left messages, he always called back. How refreshing it is to finally have someone, who is honest and has a great work ethic, work on our home. My faith has been restored in contractors who do a great job!! Thanks Kenny!!!

Bat removal

I can’t say enough good things about this company. We live in a large older home with a second house attached and had a significant bat problem. We had called in Wildlife “professionals” on two separate occasions to fix the situation at considerable cost. Sadly, it was a total waste of time and money. In desperation we searched the internet and luckily found Bats Canada. Their web site was very informative, and better still, they guaranteed their work!

We hired them three years ago to bat proof our two houses. Their work was extensive and thorough, closing off openings from the ground level to the roof top. And we have not had a problem since.
Bats Canada is quite unique; they do exactly as they promise! How amazing is that?

Our 5 year guarantee is not up yet, but Kenny was by today to check up on things. At the same time he reminded me if there is a problem, guarantee of not, call and he will come back.

Bats Canada did a superior job and at the same time gave us peace of mind. I can go to sleep at night without fear of waking to a bat flying about - absolutely worth every penny invested.

BATSCANADA

I am pleased with the customer service we received from Kenny. As these pests are very persistent it seemed impossible for them to find an entry after everything was sealed up. They did. We called and Bats Canada responded in a fast and efficient manner.
Thank you for your persistance & Honouring the guarantee.

Bats Canada gave us our home back

We recently moved from the city to our dream home in the county. When we started to hear noises in the night and early morning, in the wall and ductwork...we initially thought it was a bird trapped in the eaves trough or hvac system. Until we were awakened one night to a bat flying around our bedroom! I was terrified...and my poor husband was forced to deal with the situation while I hid in the bathroom. The next morning we started Internet searches on how to handle this, only to discover that many "exterminators" out there charge a high price and offer no guarantee of complete removal or prevention of bats returning. Except Bats Canada. My husband made the call and talked to Kenny for almost a half hour. We quickly learned what a true professional Kenny and his colleague are. They came to our home within 24 hours and were able to identify the entry points right away. They got to work...sealing up our home and preparing any areas on the roof that could also have been entry points. He explained the habits of bats to us and set up trap doors so any bats inside could leave...but not return. Here we are a year later..bat free and loving our home. Don't waste your money elsewhere. Invest in your home and get back to living!
