Terre Haute's Wildlife Problem Is Specific. So Is Our Approach.

The older homes near Indiana State University, the 1920s and 1930s houses along South 7th Street and Poplar Street, and the brick buildings downtown share the same profile: old wood fascia, deteriorating soffits, open attic vents. Big Brown Bats find these structures the same way every year.

The Wabash River bottomlands bring a different set of problems. Raccoons follow the river corridor straight into residential neighborhoods, and flying squirrels — which most homeowners mistake for mice — are heavy in the older-growth tree neighborhoods around ISU.

These patterns repeat every season: certain neighborhoods carry the most bat pressure, certain streets load up with raccoon activity after high water, and Indiana Bats — a federally endangered species — have been documented in Vigo County. That shapes how every job here has to be approached.

Why Exclusion-First Wildlife Control Works

Trapping one animal without sealing the building just books the next tenant's move-in. Every job follows the same sequence: a full-structure inspection to find every entry point (older homes usually have several, not one), humane removal or one-way exclusion, permanent sealing with materials matched to the home, and an honest assessment of whether the attic needs restoration.

Documented Inspection First

Every job starts with a photographed, full-structure inspection — not just the one gap you already found.

One-Way Exclusion, No Extermination

One-way devices let animals leave and block re-entry. It's the law for bats and better practice for everything else.

Permanent Sealing

Metal flashing, hardware cloth, and mortar repair matched to the home — not a bead of foam that fails by winter.

Straight Talk on Attic Restoration

Not every colony needs a full cleanup. We tell you honestly which situation you have.

Common Questions

Is a bat in my house an emergency?

Yes. Any bat that has been in a room with sleeping people or children must be captured for rabies testing. Do not release it. Call us and your local health department immediately. Bat bites are often painless and go unnoticed, which is why the exposure risk is taken seriously.

What is bat maternity season and why does it matter?

Indiana DNR prohibits bat exclusion from May 15 through August 15. During this period, mother bats are nursing pups that cannot yet fly. Sealing them in causes pups to die inside your attic, creating odor and additional health hazards. We can inspect your home right now and schedule exclusion work to begin August 15.

What does bat removal cost in Terre Haute?

Inspections run $75–$100, often waived when you book work. Exclusion typically costs $400–$1,500 depending on your home's size and entry points. Full attic restoration after a bat colony runs $2,000–$5,000. We quote straight numbers after the inspection.

Are Indiana Bats protected?

Yes. The Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalis) is federally endangered under the Endangered Species Act. If Indiana Bats are present or suspected, federal ESA protections apply and standard exclusion methods may not be legal without consultation. We treat every bat job as protected until confirmed otherwise.

How long does bat exclusion take?

We install one-way exclusion devices and seal secondary entry points. The devices stay in place for a minimum of three days to allow all bats to exit. Then we return to seal the primary entry points permanently. Most homes are done within one to two weeks of the start date.

Do you need an Indiana DNR permit for wildlife removal?

Yes. Indiana requires a Wildlife Control Operator (WCO) permit issued by Indiana DNR for nuisance wildlife removal. Work is performed by Indiana DNR-permitted Wildlife Control Operators. Ask any wildlife control company for their WCO number before they touch your property.
