Safe, Humane, and Effective Squirrel Control for Homes and Businesses

Hearing scratching or scurrying noises in your attic or walls? You may have unwanted squirrel guests. While squirrels might look cute in your yard, they can cause serious damage once they move inside. Our expert team specializes in humane squirrel trapping, removal, and prevention to keep your home safe and pest-free.

The Dangers of a Squirrel Infestation

Squirrels are known for their constant chewing - and that behavior can cause major problems indoors. Once they nest in your attic or crawl space, squirrels can:

Chew through wiring, creating a serious fire hazard

Damage insulation and drywall while building nests

Contaminate attic spaces with droppings and urine

Create loud scratching and running noises, especially early in the morning

Attract other pests like fleas, mites, and insects

Ignoring a squirrel problem can lead to expensive repairs, electrical issues, and lingering odors - so early removal is key.
