Squirrels We Remove
Each squirrel species that invades your home has its own characteristics. In the city, the eastern gray squirrel has gray fur but can also be black or white, and it is known for its adaptability to urban areas. The red squirrel has reddish-brown fur with a black stripe and pale underparts, often favoring attics and tree cavities for nesting. Flying squirrels are notorious for getting into homes through small openings, using their large dark eyes and membrane wings to glide between trees and rooftops. These fascinating animals, including fox squirrels, ground squirrels, tree squirrels, and other types of gray squirrels, have evolved to thrive in their own environments. However, when they enter homes, they can cause damage by chewing on electrical wiring, insulation, and wooden support beams.
01
Squirrel Prevention
Long-term control is key to preventing future squirrel infestations. Clear your yard of any nuts, fruits, and seeds that have fallen and you will deter squirrels. Additionally, bird feeders can attract these critters, so using squirrel-proof bird feeders or placing them far from fences and tree branches will help minimize access. Year-round protection from these critters can be had with services like Rodent Prevention Plus, ensuring that squirrels do not find your home appealing for nesting, especially when squirrel babies are born and seeking shelter. Regular Home Inspections: Regular inspections will help you detect and secure entry points before they become an issue. Squirrels are resourceful wild animals that can squeeze through small openings, so sealing gaps and reinforcing vulnerable areas will prevent unwanted guests. Trimming tree branches that extend too close to your roof can further reduce the risk of squirrels gaining entry.
02
Live Trapping Squirrels
Squirrel trapping is a method used to remove squirrels from the attic safely and effectively. A properly sized squirrel trap, about 5 inches by 5 inches by 18 inches, ensures the best results. The Safeguard Squirrel-Rat Live Trap and the Havahart Squirrel Cage are good options for this. Bait the traps with whole peanuts or peanut butter to increase your chances of catching them. For better results, place the traps near entry points where squirrels get in or along climbing trees they frequently use. This method is a humane way to manage nuisance wildlife while preventing future infestations.
03
Squirrel Activity
These are signs of squirrel activity. If you notice any of these, consider contacting wildlife removal companies to assess the situation. A professional squirrel removal company can provide humane methods to safely remove squirrels without harm. Additionally, squirrel exclusion and wildlife prevention services can help secure your home, sealing entry points to prevent future wildlife intrusions and protect against recurring infestations.
04
One-Way Doors
One-way doors allow squirrels to leave your home without re-entry. These are used by professionals for wildlife control and wildlife removal services to ensure safe and effective eviction. They fit these doors at entry points where squirrels can get in but can’t get back in, making it a key method in humane wildlife control. This approach is not only effective for squirrels but is also commonly used in humane raccoon removal. If you have a wildlife problem, seeking professional assistance ensures that the issue is handled safely and efficiently.
05
Pest Infestations
Identify a pest infestation early to prevent damage. Look for signs like squirrel droppings, gnawed electrical wiring, and openings in roof vents or perimeters. Squirrels living in attics often enter through these weak spots, creating nests that can be fire hazards. Over time, their activity can weaken wooden support beams and insulation, leading to costly repairs.
