Rabies
Rabies is most common in the canine species in the United States. There are reports that nearly 55,000 people a year die of rabies but that is mostly in Africa and Asia. The reason that bats pose such a risk is because nationwide 5-15 percent of bats in houses submitted for public health evaluation are positive for rabies.
Bats in attic are the source for most human cases in the United States. When there are bat infestations of homes you run the risk of a bat in house. This is a very dangerous situation, and needs to be addressed immediately. Bat bites are not very evident and may not be noticed when they occur or when a patient is examined.
Some people might say "I had a bat in my house and I don't recognize any type of bite." Even if you don't recognize a bat pest bite, you should contact your local health department immediately. It is recommended that if you do have a bat in your house that you should be capture the bat in a safe manner in order to be tested. If the bat is tested and does not have rabies then most likely anybody that could have come into contact with the bat would not need to get the rabies shots.
From experience, it is not a good idea to take any chances. I was bit by a bat recently on my gloves, but I was unsure if the bat had actually bit into my skin. Because I was in a hurry while performing removal of bats from attic, I released the bats and the bats were never tested for rabies. I did not want to take any chances and the health department director recommended that I receive the post exposure rabies shots. This is a set of four series of shots.
The first round of shot is usually about four to five shots depending on your weight. The shots are then administered on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th days. After you receive the post exposure shots and have another exposure to rabies, you are only required to receive just one round of shots.
We solve many types of wildlife control conflicts in
Cornelius and surrounding areas. Give us a call if you need expert animal removal and/or live wildlife trapping.
We can also perform an inspection of your property to evaluate the problem.
Many of the projects we solve involve raccoon families in attics and chimneys, mud swallow nests on stucco, woodpeckers drilling siding, voles and gophers destroying lawns, rats or squirrels thumping and bumping around inside walls and in attics, bat infestations, skunks stealing pet food and snakes living in crawlspaces and stone walls.
Along with physical damage and disease, wild animals also bring along disturbance and nuisance with all their noise and commotion and smell. Baby raccoons chirp and chitter like little birds; raccoons and rats will fight all night and keep people awake; skunk smell takes the cake, but have you ever smelled a dead animal in your ventilation system? We have seen much, much more than these problems, but that is a general idea of the kinds of problems that my professional wildlife removal operators and I are prepared to solve.
Not only do my technicians and I trap and remove problem wild animals, we do a lot of other dirty work, too. Don't hesitate to call us for dead animal removal, pigeon waste cleanup, bat guano removal, mouse droppings, decontamination, repairs, above ground and below ground rodent slick fencing, odor control for skunk spray, and the like. We are a full service pest control company with a wide range of animal control solutions.
I have been in the professional wildlife control business for many years. My favorite stories and experiences are removing bats from schools and churches.
