Who We Are
Tampa Bay's Bat Removal Specialists
Family-owned and operated since 2009. We've protected over 3,000 Tampa Bay homes and businesses from bat infestations — humanely, legally, and permanently.
Our Story
Built on One Simple Idea
Tampa Bat Removal was founded by Marcus Delgado after he spent years watching homeowners get burned by general pest control companies that didn't understand Florida bat law, botched exclusions during maternity season, or left guano contamination behind. He knew there was a better way.
We built this company around a single principle: do the job right the first time. That means following Florida Fish and Wildlife regulations to the letter, using only proven exclusion methods, and never cutting corners on cleanup. Our reputation in Tampa Bay is built on referrals — and that's exactly how we want it.

Credentials That Matter
Bat removal in Florida is regulated by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Not every pest control company is qualified — or even legally permitted — to do this work. We are.
Florida Wildlife Trapping Agent License
Issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Required by law to trap, handle, or exclude bats in the state of Florida.
National Certified Bat Specialist
Nationally recognized certification in bat biology, colony behavior, and exclusion methodology — the highest professional credential in the bat removal industry. We understand how bats think, which is why our exclusions work permanently.
Certified Bat Exclusion Specialist
Advanced state-level certification in bat exclusion methodology. Combined with our National Certified Bat Specialist credential, we hold the most comprehensive bat-specific certifications available to any Florida contractor.
OSHA-Certified Remediation Technicians
All guano cleanup and attic remediation work is performed by OSHA-certified technicians trained in hazardous material handling and respiratory protection.
Fully Licensed & Insured
General liability and workers' compensation insurance protects you throughout every job. We carry $2 million in coverage — ask to see our certificate anytime.
BBB Accredited Business
Accredited with the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating. We've maintained that rating for over a decade by resolving every customer concern promptly.
Florida Maternity Season Compliance
We strictly observe the April 15 – August 15 maternity season exclusion ban. We will never perform exclusion work during this period — regardless of what a competitor tells you.
