For a two-week period beginning in July, I had been experiencing 2-3 bats each night inside my house – the first time I’ve ever experienced this. I read everything I could find online on how to resolve the problem. Step one was watching for bat activity at dusk and saw a flurry of activity around my chimney. Inside my house, I installed bird netting to keep bats from entering through my fireplace. I also blocked-off the entranceway to my sunroom where they always seemed to gravitate. This was modestly effective at trapping them once they were inside or restricting them in one area where I could open a door or window to flush them outside, but I still had to find a solution to keep them out. After two weeks and of losing quite a bit sleep, I reached a breaking point when I heard something rustling under my desk and looked down to find one in my waste basket. Photos and videos are attached to illustrate my problem.
Through videos and articles online I installed a couple exit vents at potential access points, but I several experts recommended against sealing outside entry points in June-July because it’s a birthing period and will seal juvenile bats inside (and I did find one juvenile bat crawling in my kitchen sink). Several resources recommended against ultrasonic devices, saying that they would be ineffective because bats may eventually become accustomed to the noise. CLEANRTH offers solutions for this concern, and I was willing to try anything.
My CLEANRTH CB006 arrived in three days – about a week earlier than the estimated delivery window. I didn’t set it up immediately because I wanted to first review the instructions thoroughly. By the time I plugged it in that evening I had already contended with two bats in my house. It has now been ten-days since I first plugged it in, and I haven’t seen a single bat in my house since. The instructions mention that bats can be persistent, and it may take some time for the ultrasonic system to fully repel all bats, so CLEANRTH invites customers to contact them with questions or advice specific to your particular bat problem. After a few day, I wrote with a couple questions and to ask what I should expect over the next several days/weeks. CLEANRTH replied immediately with answers to my questions and recommendations for continued success. They also asked that I update them on progress to make sure my problem was completely resolved. Customer service doesn’t get any better than that.
After ten-days, my home is bat-free; although I’ll keep the system running and still want to inspect and seal every square inch of the outside of my house in the Fall, so I don’t ever have to deal with this problem again. However, this system was reasonably priced and fantastically effective. I’m grateful to the CLEANRTH for both the product and a superior customer service experience. If you have bats in your home, I highly recommend you try this product and trust that when this company says they stand by their product and will help you resolve your particular bat problem, they genuinely mean it.
