The problem enters in when they discover a crack in the eaves of your roof, attic, basement or chimney and then they can work (i.e. chew) their way inside. For them, this is a much better option. For you, it is a terrible option!

They will take up residence just about anywhere it is warm and they can build their nest, and then you will have major problems. Squirrels are incessant chewers and one of their favorite tricks is to chew through your electrical wires, which can start a fire. Squirrels are a major cause of home fires in this manner.

They are also a potential health hazard, as their droppings can become numerous, which attracts bacteria and parasites. They can also get into the walls, the attic and cause all kinds of havoc.

Then you have the noise. If you have ever had mice, you can hear them running around in the walls, and that can be annoying. Squirrels are bigger animals, so their noise is louder, and even more annoying.

Our squirrel removal experts will then patch up the entrance areas that gave them access in the first place as well as shoring up any other obvious places that are vulnerable. (Please see our Exclusion Services page for more info on this.)

If the proper steps are taken to fix any openings in your home, whether they be in the roof or eaves area, or even along the foundation and basement areas, then the animals will be discouraged from trying to enter and will go somewhere else.
