Rabies Found in Boulder Residence: Bat Tests Positive

A bat discovered in a Boulder home has been confirmed to have rabies, with concerns that it may have interacted with at least one dog.

Boulder County Public Health revealed that there is a possibility the bat had contact with a second dog as well.

Rabies is a deadly virus that impacts the nervous system and is almost always fatal once symptoms manifest, according to the health department.

The disease is typically transmitted through a bite or scratch from an infected animal, while exposure from bats can occur through small punctures that are hard to detect. Immediate administration of a series of vaccines after a bite or scratch can prevent illness, as per the health department.

“Rabies is not confined to a specific area, and we want to ensure that people do not have a false sense of security,” said Boulder County Public Health Environmental Health Specialist Carly Wilson. “Even though the bat was found in Boulder city, residents across the county should take necessary precautions to minimize their risk.”

Individuals who suspect they, a family member, or a pet have had contact with a bat are urged to contact Boulder County Public Health at 303-441-1564 without delay.

According to the health department, rabies exposure commonly happens when people or pets encounter wildlife. Bats are often located under eaves, porch overhangs, shutters, or gutters. The department advised against touching bats and discouraged residents from attempting to remove them from their property.
