In our experience at Green Services Termite & Pest Control, many people find squirrels and other local wildlife cute. However, just because you appreciate an animal’s cuteness does not mean you want them in your home. Our team has extensive experience in animal control, and we can offer fast, effective squirrel removal services to get these adorable pests out of your home. In this article, we will go over a few signs that you need our squirrel removal services.
- Scurrying Sounds – One sign that you have a squirrel problem is persistent sounds of scratching or scurrying. You will most likely hear these sounds coming from above the ceiling or from inside your walls, and they most frequently occur at night. If you have heard sounds of something scampering about, don’t hesitate to give us a call to schedule squirrel removal services.
- Gnawing Damage – Another sign you need squirrel removal services is visible damage around your property. Like mice and rats, squirrels chew and gnaw on the materials around them to create openings for themselves. If you have squirrels in your home, you will likely notice damage to the walls, soffit, baseboards, and other elements of the construction. Squirrels are also known to chew on electrical wiring, creating a serious fire hazard, and making it even more urgent to schedule removal services.
- Unpleasant Odors – A third sign you need squirrel removal services is unexplained odors around your home. If you notice that your home smells musty, we encourage you to have your home inspected for squirrels or rodents. The smell could very well be coming from droppings and urine, which is another good reason to schedule removal services as soon as possible.
