Found a bat on the ground?

  1. Use a branch (2-3 ft long) to let the bat grab with its feet.
  2. Gently lift the branch and slowly move the bat the branches of a nearby tree.
  3. Monitor the area, if the bat did not move from where you placed it by the next morning it may be sick or injured.

Found a bat in your home?

  1. Wait until the bat is not moving. Trying to capture a flying bat can be nearly impossible, but it also increases the chances of hurting the bat. Be patient, it will land.
  2. Contain the bat. We suggest placing a thick towel or box over the bat. If using a box, gently slide cardboard between the surface the bat is on (i.e., floor or wall).
  3. Contact us if you live in the BCS area
  4. Contact Texas Wildlife Rescue Center if you live outside of BCS - 713-468-8972

Bats living in your home

Although bats are very important animals and extremely beneficial, there are times they may be a nuisance by living in your home or business.

As our cities grow we encroach on bat habitat, forcing them to look for new roosts to live in and raise their young. Many human-made structures provide the right space and temperature that bats love for being safe and warm. Learn more
