Bat exclusion and German cockroach control in Morris require more than just products and tools — they demand precision, compassion, and follow-through.
For many Morris homeowners, hearing fluttering in the attic or spotting a cockroach in the kitchen is more than a nuisance — it’s a source of stress and health concerns.
That’s why so many residents rely on Complete Ground Control, a local expert known for solving pest and wildlife problems safely, humanely, and effectively.
In a single day, our crew managed multiple bat exclusions across Morris, using one-way devices that let bats out but prevent them from getting back in — all without harming a single animal.
We also began initial treatments for German cockroach infestations, which require a multi-step process to fully eradicate.
Humane Bat Exclusion No Harm, No Return
One of the reasons people in Morris trust Complete Ground Control is their bat removal philosophy: humane, efficient, and permanent.
Bat exclusion isn’t about extermination — it’s about respecting wildlife while keeping homes safe.
We use one-way traps, which allow bats to exit but block their re-entry.
Our zero harm to the animals, and once the structure is sealed, the problem stays solved.
Why this matters to Morris homeowners:
- Bats are protected under Minnesota wildlife laws.
- DIY bat removal can lead to legal issues or failed results.
- Bats in the attic can lead to noise, odor, and potential exposure to droppings (guano).
- Proper exclusion keeps both humans and wildlife safe.
Key Steps in Bat Exclusion:
- Inspection of home exterior and attic areas
- Identification of entry/exit points
- Installation of one-way exclusion devices
- Sealing of all gaps and cracks once bats exit
- Post-service monitoring and follow-up
“We spent the day in Morris performing bat exclusions on several homes,” said Luke Buggert.
“Just getting the bats out, keeping them out with one-way traps — no bats harmed in the process.”
| Criteria | Professional Exclusion | DIY Attempt |
|---|---|---|
| Animal Safety | Guaranteed with one-way traps | Often harmful or illegal |
| Long-Term Results | Sealed re-entry points | Typically temporary |
| Legal Compliance | Follows state wildlife laws | May violate regulations |
Cockroach Infestation? Here’s What to Expect
Alongside wildlife removal, cockroach control is one of the most urgent services for homeowners in Morris.
In this visit, Luke’s team treated several homes for German cockroaches, a persistent and fast-reproducing pest species often found in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility areas.
These infestations require an initial treatment followed by 2–3 visits, typically spaced 14 to 21 days apart.
Each treatment builds on the last, targeting cockroaches at different life stages, including newly hatched nymphs.
Signs of German Cockroach Activity:
- Small, pepper-like droppings near appliances or cabinets
- Oval egg casings (oothecae)
- Musty odor
- Visible roaches during the day (a sign of high infestation)
| Treatment Stage | Action Taken | Follow-up Schedule |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Visit | Baiting, dusts, monitoring | Day 0 |
| Second Visit | Targeted reapplication | Day 14–21 |
| Final Visit | Eradication check, sealing | Day 28–42 if needed |
