Bats! Have Quincho roof (thatched)

Post New Topic

Does anyone have experience with getting bats out of a house with a quincho roof? The girl that comes in to clean says she knows someone that will come in and kill all of the bats. I tend to listen to the advice of locals, but, this solution does not make me happy. Does anyone know of any other way?

Thanks!
Allison

We have a quincho as well and when we first moved in i kept getting swallows upstairs. I thought maybe they were coming down the chimney but it turned out it was in an upstairs corner between the wall and the roof.

I blocked the hole and have not had them since.

We used to have bats living outside under our wood shingles on an old farm house in Canada. I think you need to figure out where they are entering and plug it or maybe your roof needs some work from the outside such as new cement around the ridge or chimneys if there are small cracks they could get through. Some bats can get through a hole the diameter of your thumb.
