Wondering How to Get Rid of Squirrels or Chipmunks?

If you’re dealing with squirrels in your attic or chipmunks digging up your yard, you might be searching for ways to remove them. While DIY methods can be tempting, these small animals can cause big problems if not handled properly. Here’s why professional removal of squirrels and chipmunks is the best option:

Expert Assessment & Prevention

Squirrels and chipmunks can be surprisingly persistent in finding ways into your home or garden. Our professionals will conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify access points, like small gaps in your roof or foundation. We’ll safely remove the animals and take preventative steps to keep them from returning. Without this expert intervention, you may continue to face ongoing problems.

Long-Term Solutions

Professional removal doesn’t just focus on getting rid of the squirrels or chipmunks; it’s about keeping them away for good. Our team offers long-term solutions, like sealing entry points and habitat modification, to prevent future infestations. This helps protect your property and save you from repeated issues and costly damage repair.

Avoiding Property Damage

Squirrels and chipmunks may be small, but they can cause significant damage. Squirrels can chew through wires, insulation, and wood, leading to costly repairs, while chipmunks’ burrowing can damage your garden, yard, or even weaken structures like patios or foundations. Professional removal stops these animals before their damage escalates, keeping your home and yard safe.

Signs of Chipmunks/Squirrels On Your Property

Bats can be elusive, often going unnoticed until their presence becomes too obvious to ignore. It’s important to recognize the signs early to prevent a small problem from turning into a larger infestation. Here are some common indicators that you might have bats in your home:

1. Chewed Wood and Wires

Both chipmunks and squirrels have strong teeth that can cause noticeable damage. Look for signs of gnawing on wood, decking, outdoor furniture, or even electrical wires, which can pose a fire hazard.

2. Burrowed Holes and Tunnels

Chipmunks are known for creating shallow burrows and tunnels, often near foundations, patios, or garden beds. These burrows can lead to soil erosion and structural issues if left unchecked.

3. Nests in Trees or Attics

Squirrels typically build nests, known as dreys, in trees or sometimes in attics if they gain access to your home. These nests are often made of twigs, leaves, and other materials and can be found high in the branches or in the corners of your attic.

4. Scattered Nut Shells and Food Stashes

If you find piles of nut shells, acorns, or other food items stashed around your property, it’s a clear sign that squirrels or chipmunks are nearby. They often store food in hidden spots for later use.

5. Sighting of the Animals

Seeing chipmunks darting along your garden or squirrels running along power lines and trees is a sure sign that they are living close by. Squirrels are particularly active during the day, while chipmunks can be seen during daylight hours as well.

6. Disturbed Bird Feeders

If you notice bird feeders being knocked over, emptied quickly, or chewed on, it’s likely the work of squirrels or chipmunks. These animals are notorious for raiding bird feeders for easy access to food.
