I Description of property
This large multilevel facility had thousands of
bats roosting beneath it's Spanish clay roof tiles. It was determined
that there were 3 separate colonies of free-tailed bats living
in various levels of the facility roof voids.
II Description of problem
San Pedro church had bats roosting heavily in
several areas of the Church roof voids under the barrel tiles.
They became a problem when the number of bats dramatically increased,
disturbing night services, and when they started to fly in the
church during services.
With a two-man crew the entire roof was bat excluded
using exclusion flaps in various areas and then sealing the entire
roof to keep bats from reentering the roof voids.
IV Unique attributes for this particular project
Because the roof tiles were clay, our crews had
to walk very carefully while working on the roof. We did not break
a single tile!
The cross tower was over 90 feet high, which made
access very difficult. It could only be reached with a 100 foot
boom.
Total job time was 5 working days.
