Unless you have already had a bat infestation, you may find that bat prevention tips that not that important in your life. However, there are certain areas of the world where it definitely pays to be cautious, and this is very much so the case in Canada, North America, and definitely areas that you have already seen bats or somewhere near a source of water. (They like the bugs that live and eat around it)

If you already know that there are bats in your area, it makes sense to prevent a problem before it occurs, especially when you consider that once they enter your home in the spring time, it will be impossible to remove them because they have started having their babies. As with most things – prevention is better than cure.

In short, sealing your home is the only bat prevention tip that is going to work both safely and effectively. If there are no holes in your home that bats can use as an entrance and exit, there is no need for them to be around there, and you will often find that they soon move on. It makes perfect sense, so before you decide to look at things such as moth balls, high frequency noise devices, and chemicals, which prove to be a total waste of money in more cases than not, maybe you should just do the sensible thing and prevent them properly.

Clearly an expert is the best way to go in this matter – they will make sure that there are currently no bats dwelling within your home, (you must do this before you many any attempts to prevent them) and they will often block up the little holes that you might not even know about for you. This basically means a total job well done, with little or no effort from you.
