A fine day's catch of squirrels. |

Customer Squirrel Email: I found your website and am hoping you can help out. Since the first cold snap in November we thought we heard something scratching in the attic. I went into the attic and saw no signs of animal activity but recently heard the noise again. Then, a few days ago I spotted the squirrels and the area they were getting in (its where an upper roof and garage roof meet). The squirrels have been fairly brazen in that they are unafraid - you have to get close and threatening to get them to move. I'd like to get some idea of the cost or an estimate. We're located in Stoneybrook East. Let me know next steps. Best regards, Matt
My Answer: It's common for rats to enter during the first cold snap. Do you hear the noises during the daytime, or night? Either way, I can help you. I can inspect your home tomorrow.

Probably the most common human/wildlife conflict nationwide is the one between people and squirrels. The Eastern Gray Squirrel is an agile and common suburban and urban animal, and it loves to chew and explore. They frequently raid the birdfeeder, but this isn't a big
problem. The real problem is that squirrels commonly seek out places in which to live, and this commonly includes human dwellings - attics, crawl spaces, walls, chimneys, and more. They chew and often cause damage inside buildings, to wood and electrical wires.
The only way to permanently solve a squirrel problem is to find out how the rodents are gaining access to the inside of the building, and
fix those openings, after the animals have been trapped and removed, of course. One-way exclusion devices also work very well for squirrel problems in buildings. If you want to learn more, please read my How To Get Rid of Squirrels page.
