Types of Bats found in Collingwood
There are several different types of bats found in Collingwood, Ontario. The most common type is the little brown bat, which is a member of the vesper bat family. These small bats typically roost in trees and buildings, and can be found in both rural and urban areas. Other types of bats found in Collingwood include the big brown bat, the hoary bat, and the silver-haired bat. These larger species are more common in forested areas and tend to roost in caves or under the bark of trees. While all types of bats are important to the ecosystem, some species are more at risk of decline due to habitat loss and human disturbance. As a result, it is important to take steps to protect these valuable animals.

What are Signs you have Bats in Your Collingwood House
Quick assessment guide on 5 signs of bats in attic from Angie’s list
Bat Droppings
One of the biggest signs that you have bats would be if you find bat droppings along eavestroughs, and on your roof near points of entry. You may also see bat droppings on decks, porches, attic, and windowsills. Sometimes there’s also a smell that accompanies it, and people have described it as an ammonia type smell. It can permeate your walls if left for a long time.
Seeing bats around the house in the morning and evening
Since bats are active mainly at night, you won’t be seeing much during the day. They start their day in the evening, and finish up in the morning. If you’re seeing this, there’s a good chance that the bats may be nesting in your attic or walls.
Chirping noises
Bats actually communicate via chirping noises. They’ve got such good echolocation for finding their prey as well as finding their way around obstacles, but they do communicate with each other through chirping. If you’re hearing a lot of noises that resemble chirping at night, dusk or dawn – there’s a really good chance you’ve got bats in the house.
Stains on possible entry and exit points
Something most people don’t know is that bats actually secrete oils and grease on the surface of their skin. So when they’re going in and out of your house by their little entry holes they’ve found or created, you can start to notice stains. They’ll leave a bit of a greasy stain that other rodents like squirrels and raccoons won’t. This is a telltale sign that you’ve most like got a bat infestation and should take care of it as quickly as possible.
Scratching noises in the walls
Bats have really big claws/nails, and when they move around inside your walls you can hear scratching noises. This can be really spooky, so if you’re hearing scurrying or scratching noises in your walls or attic, it could very well be bats or other rodents.
