New York and East Coast Bat Removal; Meet Peter Long

Occasionally, when we are doing a bat removal project, we will pull in helpers and safety personnel. These employees typically don’t have any experience in bat removal, but are people we see tremendous potential in.

Peter Long happens to be one of these individuals. He is an extremely hard working, dedicated young man that does a phenomenal job in New York and the East Coast bat removal areas.

While he hasn’t been with us long, he has already proven himself to be an intelligent, skilled, and hardworking young man.

How did you get started with GBO?

• I began after returning home from a volunteer construction project in Warwick, New York. I was referred to Get Bats Out by a family friend. The first project I worked on was in Reston, Virginia on a large commercial bat removal project we did at a condo complex. It lasted for about ten days and was a great learning experience. I got to work with, and get to know, Michael Koski personally and definitely got a great foundation for learning about bat removal there.
