About Minnesota Bats: Minnesota bat control problems can sometimes get out of control. The ET Pest Control units works great repelling the Minnesota Bat. They simply plug-in to any house hold outlet or they can be plugged-in on the end of an extension cord to get into tight and confined areas. Minnesota Bats Species:There are seven species of bats that are native to Minnesota: the Little Brown, Keen’s Little Brown, the Big Brown, Pipistrelle, Silver-haired, Red, and Hoary. All of these species are insect eating. They are between 3-6 inches long, have a wingspan of between 9-15 inches, and weigh between 0.2 to 1.1 ounces. The Hoary bat is the largest found in Minnesota, and the Pipistrelle is the smallest. The Little Brown bat is the most common species in the summer. The Big and Little Brown bats are colonial species (they live in groups) and are the ones most often found residing in bat houses. During the summer bats have their pups; usually one or two during June or July. Since Minnesota can get very cold in the winter, most bats will migrate south to warmer climates or hibernate until the weather is warm again. Minnesota Bats Habitat:Bats have adapted well to our urban and suburban environments. Bats can be found in and around buildings, bridges, and other manmade structures. The most common place to find bats in homes are the gable vents. Gable vents are screened vents located in peaks of gables that aid in proper attic ventilation. Although most bats do not have rabies, those that do may be disoriented and unable to fly, which makes it more likely that they will come into contact with humans. Avoid handling bats or having them in one’s living space, as with any wild animal. Please use proper caution. We are very confident that the ET Pest Control will demand your Minnesota bat problem to leave your home with positive results.
