After the colony has left, we remove the devices and seal every opening permanently. No trapping, no poison, no harm to the bats.

About McCammon and the Southeast Idaho region
McCammon sits in southeastern Bannock County where the Portneuf River winds out of the Portneuf Range toward the Snake River Plain. The community grew as a railroad town along the Oregon Short Line, and Interstate 15 now runs nearby, with the Portneuf Gap forming a natural corridor through the basalt rim country to the north. Older brick and wood-frame homes from the railroad era stand near the river bottoms, and farmland and pasture spread across the valley floor between dry, sage-covered foothills. Cottonwood galleries along the Portneuf, irrigation laterals, and the warm summer evenings of this high desert valley shape the local landscape. The surrounding ridges of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest rise to the east, giving McCammon a transition zone between river bottom and mountain habitat.
The Portneuf River corridor and its cottonwood bottoms provide foraging and water for insect-eating bats around McCammon, with the big brown bat and little brown myotis being the species most likely to use buildings as roosts. Yuma myotis favor the riverside habitat, while the rocky cliffs of the Portneuf Gap suit canyon bats. Older wood-frame and brick homes near the river offer attic and soffit gaps where colonies can settle, especially as bats seek warm, sheltered roosts through the warm months.

Common questions about bat removal in McCammon
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.
