Bat Removal & Exclusion in Land O' Lakes, FL
Bats in the attic require legal, humane exclusion — done right and within Florida law. Proudly serving Land O' Lakes and all of Pasco County.
From Bexley, Connerton, Ballantrae to the rest of Land O' Lakes, Land O' Lakes homeowners trust Taps Pest Services for reliable bat removal & exclusion. Bats are protected under Florida law, and it's illegal to trap, harm, or exclude them during maternity season (April 16 – August 14) when flightless pups are in the roost. The Brazilian (Mexican) free-tailed bat is the species most often found colonizing Tampa Bay attics, soffits, and rooflines, followed by evening and big brown bats. They squeeze through gaps as small as 3/8 inch near the roofline, gable vents, and ridge caps, and the colony returns and grows year after year if it isn't excluded. We perform legal, humane bat exclusion using one-way devices that let bats leave but never get back in, then seal every entry point and safely clean up the guano.
Land O' Lakes' lakes and fast-growing communities in Pasco County bring mosquitoes, fire ants, and wildlife to new and established homes alike. We keep Land O' Lakes protected year-round.

Is it legal to remove bats in Florida?
Yes, but only through humane exclusion — never trapping or killing. Florida law prohibits bat exclusion during maternity season (April 16–August 14), when flightless pups would be trapped inside and die. We schedule and perform exclusions legally, outside that window.
What kind of bats get into attics in Tampa Bay?
The Brazilian (Mexican) free-tailed bat is by far the most common attic colonizer around Riverview and Tampa, along with evening bats and big brown bats. They're drawn to warm, dark, undisturbed attics and roost in colonies that grow year after year if not excluded.
