Bat removal for Pasadena, where Spanish and barrel tile roofing common on older Southern California homes creates hundreds of small entry gaps.
Call (844) 924-1337Pasadena's historic neighborhoods are full of the barrel and Spanish tile roofs that were popular when many of these homes were built, and that architectural choice comes with a downside decades later: each curved tile has an open end and an overlapping seam, and a bat can wedge into a gap as small as a quarter inch by half inch. A roof that has held up well for a hundred years can still have dozens of these tiny openings scattered across it, none of them visible unless someone climbs up for a close look.
California doesn't allow chemical treatment for bats, since no pesticide or repellent is registered for the job, so an older Pasadena home with a tile roof colony has to be handled through exclusion instead. That means waiting for the bats to leave on their own to feed and then sealing the tile ends behind them, a slower process than most homeowners expect going in.

Bat removal from an attic is typically handled through exclusion: sealing off other potential entry points, installing one-way devices at the main entry so bats can leave to feed but can't get back in, then sealing that opening once the roost is confirmed empty. Bat exclusion calls for a professional assessment of the species, roost, and appropriate timing; do not attempt to seal an occupied roost yourself.
The same exclusion approach used for attics applies to bats roosting elsewhere in a house, soffits, eaves, chimneys, or wall voids. An exclusion assessment should identify active openings and consider the roost before any entry points are closed.
Coverage varies by policy and provider, and many policies treat wildlife exclusion differently than damage repair. Check directly with your insurance provider about what your specific policy covers before assuming either way.
Bat removal pricing depends on your location, the extent of the roost, access conditions, and the exclusion work required. Call PestGuardians to discuss the work needed in Pasadena and request pricing for your situation.
