Appearance - Bats vary in size depending on species, but tend to average about 5 to 20 cm in length (head to tail) with a wingspread of approximately 15 to 40 cm--depending on how old the bat is. Bats’ bodies are covered with hair varying in color from a light beige color to black. Their leathery wings stretch across skinny arms and finger bones.When roosting, bats will hang upside down.
Behavior - Most bats are insectivores, feeding on insects at night. Bats will frequent outside night lighting and pools where insects will be flying in warmer weather. Some bats prefer fruit, but those species of bats are not common in Peterson, AL. Bats are known to hibernate in the winter.
Bats tend to enter homes for safety and warmth. You are more likely to find bat problems occurring in the colder weather when it is harder for them to find a warm, safe place to live and breed. On the other hand, many accidental bat entrances happen in the summer months when bats are active and flying around. One or two may get trapped in your house while in flight, requiring them to be freed from the home.
Bats are typically drawn to homes with awnings to sleep on, accessible chimneys, or places in which to hide. They also enjoy properties with water and trees which insects may hide. If you live near a water source, have a pool, or have a lot of trees or bushes on your property, then you may find bats taking up residence as well.
While bats are helpful in reducing the insect population by feeding on them, bats are sometimes carriers of fleas and ticks. They can be infected with the rabies virus without showing any symptoms. Once inside, bats will relieve themselves in your home, and bat droppings and urine are a health risk for you and your family. Should you find bats in your house, we can provide Peterson, AL bat control to get these creatures of the night out of your home and back outside where they belong.
We've been a customer of theirs for about three years. Our technician always tailors the treatments to the current problem, and he's very quick to respond. Their staff at the office are always ready to assist and never fail to follow through with us. This level of customer service is very much appreciated!
Informative and awesome service! Thank you for being so awesome!
I was so impressed with the last two men that came to treat my house. I would definitely recommend them to everyone and anyone that is looking for their service. Actually, during the time they came, I told them that my daughter was in the hospital and I was apologetic because my house was so cluttered and messy. I was just suprised that when the same guy came for the second treatment, the first thing he asked about was my daughter and if she is doing better and out of the hospital. Very few people would express that kind of concern. So thank you, Presto-X for making sure that you employ wonderful people! I am so grateful for the guy that serviced my home. I am poor at remembering names, but you know who you are. Bless your heart and hope you touch more people!
I asked my technician for a re-treatment due to some concerns with our previous treatment. He graciously came back and was very concerned to our needs. I am very satisfied with his professionalism.
Satisfaction guaranteed indeed! Presto-X's rep really knew what he was doing and never rushed with the treatment.
After using Presto-X for some time, I have to admit that service was not as consistent as I would have hoped. Some reps just go through the motions, while some go above and beyond what's expected. However, the most recent rep who came out was by far the best among them. He did a really thorough treatment of my home for ants, silverfish, and spiders. He even knocked off all the cobwebs. I can also say for sure that their treatment works because they last just about when my next service is due.
Phenomenal service!
