Bat “Blackout Dates” in Missouri

In Missouri, wildlife protection laws establish specific “blackout dates” during which bat removal or exclusion is strictly prohibited. These periods align with the bats’ maternity and hibernation cycles, so these vital creatures can give birth and nurture their young without disruption.

The blackout dates in Missouri run from May 1st through August 15th and again from October 1st to April 15th. During these times, it is illegal to disturb or remove bats from your property. That said, our team at Bug Out is available year-round to conduct thorough inspections, so you can plan effective bat control measures once the blackout periods end.

Bat Pest Control Solutions

Plenty of people have a fear of bats, but bats are actually just as fearful of us. Although they won’t destroy your property and aren’t out to attack you, they are still labeled dangerous due to their droppings and capability for disease transmission. When dealing with protected animal species in St. Louis, you should always hire a professional pest control company for help. Trying to get rid of them on your own isn’t only dangerous for you—it can be for the bats as well.

Bug Out Reviews

Have used this pest control service for several years. Very rarely have an insect problem, but when I do, Bug Out comes immediately and addresses the issue! They have helped with ground wasps, pantry moths, sink flies, pantry moths, field mice, and roaches as needed over several years. As my regular ongoing service, they are also great. Highly recommend.
