Signs You Need Squirrel Removal Services

Squirrels are notorious for finding their way into homes, especially in the colder months when they seek warmth and shelter. Look out for these signs that may indicate you have a squirrel problem:

• Noises in the Attic or Walls: If you hear scratching, scampering, or rustling noises in your attic or walls, it could be squirrels moving around. Squirrels are most active during the early morning or late afternoon.
• Visible Damage: Squirrels are excellent chewers and will gnaw on wood, wires, insulation, and roofing materials. If you notice damage to your attic or roof, it could be a sign of a squirrel infestation.
• Nests: If you find nests made of leaves, twigs, or insulation in your attic or other areas of your home, it’s a strong indication that squirrels are living inside your property.
• Droppings and Urine: Squirrel droppings are small and dark, typically found near their nesting sites. You may also notice a strong odor from urine in places where they’ve been nesting.
• Entry Points: Squirrels can fit through surprisingly small holes, so check for any gaps in your roof, eaves, or attic vents. If there are signs of entry, such as gnaw marks or damage, it’s time to call a professional.

Our Squirrel Removal Process

At Jesse James Critter Gitters, we use a proven, step-by-step approach to remove squirrels and prevent them from returning.

1. Inspection and Assessment:
   We begin with a thorough inspection of your property to identify any signs of squirrel activity. We’ll check your roof, attic, foundation, and other areas for entry points and nesting sites. Our team will also assess the extent of the damage and recommend the best course of action.
2. Humane Trapping and Removal:
   If squirrels are inside your home, we will safely and humanely trap them using specialized equipment. Our trained team ensures that the squirrels are handled properly and relocated to an appropriate area far from your property.
3. Exclusion and Repair:
   After removing the squirrels, we will seal all entry points and make repairs to prevent further infestations. This includes patching holes, replacing damaged vents, and securing gaps around your foundation, roofline, and attic. We use durable materials designed to withstand further attempts by squirrels to gain access to your home.
4. Damage Cleanup and Decontamination:
   Squirrels can leave behind droppings, urine, and debris in their nesting areas, which can pose health risks. We offer cleanup and decontamination services to sanitize your home and ensure that it is safe from bacteria, mold, and other contaminants.

Follow-Up Services:
We provide follow-up visits to monitor your property and ensure that no new squirrels have made their way back in. If we notice any new signs of squirrel activity, we’ll address the issue quickly and effectively.

Why Squirrels Are a Problem

Squirrels may appear cute and harmless, but when they enter your home, they can cause serious damage and pose a range of risks:

• Property Damage: Squirrels are notorious for gnawing on wires, insulation, wood, and roofing materials. This can lead to costly repairs, as well as electrical hazards if they chew through wires.
• Health Risks: Squirrels can transmit diseases through their urine, droppings, and bites. They can also introduce fleas, mites, and ticks into your home, further exposing you to health risks.
• Nesting and Reproduction: Squirrels can breed multiple times a year, leading to rapid infestations. A single pair of squirrels can produce multiple offspring, increasing the extent of the damage and making it harder to control the problem.
