Squirrel Removal
Though cute and furry at first glance, squirrels can be very destructive to your home. The number one reason why you may have a squirrel infestation is because these critters are seeking shelter from severe weather and outdoor predators. Constantly on the lookout for warm and dry spaces, squirrels are attracted to garage door openings and attics.
Mothers will try to find refuge in your home so that they can birth their young. They’ll find a way through small openings in your home and through holes in walls. They’ll build nests in your attic while ripping up and damaging your insulation. Those who are nursing a litter of young raccoons will often be active during the day, and you will be able to hear the cries and whines from the babies from inside your home. Squirrels use pheromones to attract each other so a very small infestation can get widely out of control if not taken care of quickly.
Friendly Service
The main signs that you may have a squirrel infestation include scampering and scurrying sounds coming from your attic, destroyed insulation, wiring and wood. You’ll commonly find their droppings in your insulation. These droppings can carry Salmonella and Leptospirosis, which can be transmitted to humans. Along with carrying ticks, fleas and other parasites, squirrels can also die and leave behind an awfully foul and unsanitary odor. Their wire chewing can be a fire hazard, and they’ll even chew through PVC plumbing lines. A squirrel infestation can spread and get out of hand very quickly.
