Over 16 Species of Bats in Georgia
Did you know that in Georgia, there are 16 species of bats? Two of these, the Little Brown Bat and Big Brown Bat are the most likely to make a home in your attic. Despite the name “Big Brown Bat” large ones are only 3 to 4 ½ inches in size (not including wing span) and weigh just about a half of an ounce. Their tiny size is how these bats are able to find a spot to get into in your home. They find gaps and holes that already exist and squeeze their way in. Some of the most common small spots bats squeeze into are in gaps caused by warped siding, spots where there are missing bricks, broken windows, and louvers and vents in siding.
Bats Love Attics …
