Bats in Your Home? Here’s What to Do | Grand Rapids News

Bats are invading homes in West Michigan—and rabies cases are spiking. Two new confirmed cases hit Muskegon and Ionia this week, with 49 bats out of 50 total rabid animals in the state this year. As young bats explore their surroundings, they often slip into attics, walls, and chimneys through gaps as small as five-eighths of an inch. Look for droppings or dark stains as warning signs. Don’t tackle it yourself—hire wildlife pros to safely remove bats and seal every entry point to keep them out for good.
