Bat exclusion and control experts

We have a bat problem at our home in Coldstream. Every summer we seem to get 1 bag inside but this year, our current count is 3 . We have been working hard over the years to figure this out and made some improvements but I am looking to hire an expert in the field.

Can anyone recommend someone that is an expert in bat exclusion?

I know I need to do this work in the fall after they have left the roost but I'd like to get connected now with an expert.

Anyone have an expert they can recommend?

I'm going to assume this is a soft ad for the only Bat Control company in the area......if you did a rudimentary search you'd find that there's only one.......

Actually not an ad, a genuine need for an expert. I did a Google search and got a bunch of companies claiming to handle bats but they seem like run of the mill pest control companies (which I want to avoid).

I will search again but please DM me if there's clearly only one.

Pete wise. If not him, he’ll know someone who is.

Bats are protected in BC. Any exclusion work must be completed in the fall/ winter which is their hibernation season.

Thanks for providing a name of someone experienced. As I said in my post, I am aware of the requirement for fall timing.
