When Squirrels choose to inhabit your home, it's imperative to take immediate action! Remember, you don't just have Squirrels. You have everything they bring with them, and everything they leave behind: disease, parasites, feces, urine and continued damage. Squirrels chew on everything! Believe it or not, the biggest concern up front, is that Squirrels are a major Fire Hazard. Squirrels are believed to be responsible for thousands of house fires every year, from chewing on electrical wiring in walls and attics. Exposed wires are very dangerous and should be replaced as soon as the squirrels have been trapped. Squirrels will either enter the home through existing holes and entry points, or simply chew their way in. Their powerful jaws and sharp teeth can easily gnaw through roofing shingles, fascia boards, venting, plywood, etc. Once inside, squirrels can cause an incredible amount of damage in a very short period of time! Pregnant females are looking for a warm place to have their young. The insulation in your attic makes perfect nesting, after they tear and shred it as much as they possibly can. They'll continue chewing on support beams to keep their teeth sharp, as well as any personal belongings they find.
