Our Humane Squirrel Removal and Exclusion Process

Our proven process is built on a foundation of respect for wildlife and a commitment to permanent solutions. It is adaptable to any species and situation:

1. Thorough Squirrel Inspection: We start with a detailed inspection to pinpoint the exact species of squirrel, assess the extent of their activity, and locate all entry and exit points on your property, including less obvious ones like dryer vents, soffit gaps, and chimney openings. We also identify potential future access points.
2. Humane Squirrel Removal: Our customized strategy focuses on safely and humanely removing all squirrels from your home. This often involves the strategic placement of one-way exclusion doors at active entry points, allowing squirrels to leave but not re-enter.
3. Expert Squirrel Exclusion and Damage Repair: This is the most crucial step for a lasting solution. Based on our comprehensive inspection, we meticulously seal all identified entry points with durable, squirrel-proof materials. This includes reinforcing vulnerable areas, repairing chewed fascia boards, soffits, and rooflines, and securing vent covers.

Signs of Squirrels in Your Home

Not sure if squirrels have moved in? Here are the most common signs to look for. These signs are often difficult to tell apart from other rodents, so if you’re not sure, we recommend contacting us for an expert inspection.

• Sounds in Attics or Walls: Scratching, scurrying, rolling, or gnawing sounds, especially in the early morning or around dusk.
• Exterior Damage: Chewed holes near the roofline, damaged soffits or vents, or enlarged gaps in siding are all potential entry points.
• Droppings and Nesting Materials: Finding squirrel droppings (smooth, pellet-like, and larger than mouse droppings) or piles of shredded insulation, leaves, and twigs in your attic or crawlspace.
• Damage Inside: Chewed electrical wires, damaged insulation, or water stains on your ceiling caused by a compromised roof area near a nest.

How Dangerous Are Squirrels in Your Home?

While squirrels are harmless outdoors, once they take up residence inside your home, they can pose significant risks to your property and safety. It’s important to address an infestation quickly to avoid these potential dangers:

• Fire Hazard: Squirrels constantly gnaw to keep their teeth filed down. When they chew on electrical wiring in your attic or walls, they can strip the protective coating, creating a serious fire hazard.
• Structural Damage: Their powerful chewing isn’t limited to wires. They can damage wooden support beams, PVC pipes, and roof components, leading to costly structural repairs and potential water leaks.
• Destroyed Insulation: Squirrels will tear, shred, and compact your attic insulation to build their nests. This contamination reduces your home’s energy efficiency and can lead to moisture issues.
• Unsanitary Conditions: Squirrels leave behind droppings and urine and can introduce parasites like ticks and fleas into your home, creating unsanitary living conditions.
