About Franklin and the Southeast Idaho region

Franklin is a small city in Franklin County in far southeast Idaho, distinguished as the oldest continuously settled town in the state, founded by Latter day Saint pioneers in 1860. It sits in the Cache Valley near the Utah line, in fertile farm and ranch country along the Bear River drainage at the foot of the Bear River Range. The valley is broad and irrigated, filled with hay, grain, and dairy operations, and framed by the timbered slopes of the Caribou and Wasatch Cache national forests. Franklin retains a notable stock of historic nineteenth century pioneer buildings, including early stone and brick structures and old wood frame farmhouses tied to its founding era. The surrounding bottomlands hold willow and cottonwood along watercourses, with sagebrush benches rising toward the mountains.

The Bear River drainage, irrigation canals, and Cache Valley farm country around Franklin draw foraging bats over fields and waterways at dusk. Big brown bats and little brown myotis are the species most likely to roost in buildings, and the town's stock of historic stone, brick, and wood frame structures offers warm attic and wall void shelter. Yuma myotis favor the riparian bottomlands, while the mountain front and rock outcrops support additional myotis through the warm summer months.

Common questions about bat removal in Franklin

Why can't I just seal the bats in or use poison?

Sealing bats inside is illegal under Idaho and federal law. Poison is prohibited for bats entirely. Humane one-way exclusion is the only legal method and the only method that works permanently.

When is the best time to do bat removal in Idaho?

Spring (March through May) and late summer through fall (August 15 through October) are the two ideal windows. We do not do exclusions during the maternity season when flightless pups are present, roughly June through mid-August, because sealing exits during that period traps juveniles inside.

How long does the process take?

After devices are installed, the colony clears in 5 to 10 days. We then return to remove devices and permanently seal every opening. Total project time is typically one to two weeks depending on colony size and weather.
