On World Mosquito Day, take a few minutes to help reduce mosquito populations around your home:
• Eliminate standing water.
• Keep gutters clean.
• Trim overgrown vegetation.
• Repair window and door screens.

If mosquitoes are keeping you indoors, our targeted mosquito treatments can help you enjoy your yard again.

Hearing late-night squeaks and scratches?
You may have bats, but don’t lose sleep over it.

While Iowa DNR regulations pause full bat exclusions during June and July to protect maternity colonies, Bats and Bugs Pest Solutions can still help. If bats have made their way into your living space, we provide immediate, humane removal services. If they’re nesting in attics or walls, now is the perfect time to schedule an inspection and get on the list for exclusion work as soon as the seasonal restriction lifts.

Our team provides safe, effective solutions designed to protect both your home and Iowa’s protected bat populations.

Birds nesting in vents, soffits, and exhaust openings may seem harmless at first — but nests can block airflow, damage structures, and even create serious fire hazards, especially in dryer vents.

At Bats and Bugs Pest Solutions, we safely and humanely remove bird nests while helping protect your home from future damage and costly repairs. If you’re hearing chirping in the walls, noticing debris around vents, or suspect birds may be nesting on your property, it’s best to address it early.

Protect your home and your family with professional bird nest removal and exclusion services.

Mysterious dirt mounds or surface tunnels in your yard?
You could be dealing with moles or voles! The team at Bats and Bugs Pest Solutions is here to help you figure out what’s going on—and how to fix it.

Moles leave behind raised mounds (aka molehills), while voles tend to create shallow surface tunnels. Knowing the difference is key to getting rid of them. Each pest has its own habits and food sources, so effective solutions need to be species-specific—from managing grubs to adding barriers.

Not sure where to start? That’s where we come in. Our team provides expert diagnosis, removal, and prevention so you can enjoy a healthy, pest-free lawn.

Bat Trouble in June or July? Here’s Why Timing Matters.

Right now is what we call the “bat slowdown” in Iowa. During June and July, baby bats (called pups) are born and cannot fly yet.

Because of Iowa DNR regulations, some of our humane bat exclusions are paused during maternity season to avoid trapping pups inside homes.

But that doesn’t mean you should wait to call.

✔ We can still inspect your home
✔ Check for signs of bat pups
✔ Provide estimates and recommendations
✔ Prepare your home for exclusion season in August

If you’re hearing fluttering, scratching, or chirping in the attic, now is the time to get on the schedule before fall fills up.

Did You Know?

As part of National Mosquito Control Awareness week here's a fun fact that's not so fun - Mosquitoes may love when you have a few beers in the backyard.

Studies have found that drinking just one 12 oz beer can make you significantly more attractive to mosquitoes. Why? Because alcohol can:
• Increase your body temperature
• Make you exhale more carbon dioxide
• Change your skin scent and sweat chemistry

Mosquitoes use heat, scent, and CO₂ to track people down, so after a beer, you may stand out even more on their radar.

And here’s the bad news:
If you’re outside sweating, wearing dark clothing, or relaxing after yard work, mosquitoes may be even more likely to target you.

If your backyard feels more like a mosquito buffet than a relaxing summer hangout, Bats and Bugs Pest Solutions can help with mosquito treatments designed to reduce activity around your home.

Call 515-218-3400 to learn about our seasonal, monthly or services for every other month.
