Our Comprehensive Squirrel Removal Process
Our squirrel removal process is designed to address your specific situation effectively and humanely. We follow a step-by-step approach to ensure long-term solutions and prevent future infestations. We also serve the surrounding areas, such as Newark and Milpitas.
Detailed Inspection
We begin with a thorough inspection of your property to identify squirrel entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of the infestation. This allows us to develop a targeted removal plan.
Humane Trapping and Removal
Using humane trapping methods, we capture the squirrels and safely relocate them to a suitable environment away from your property. We adhere to all local and state regulations regarding wildlife removal.
Exclusion and Prevention
To prevent future squirrel infestations, we seal off entry points and provide recommendations for property modifications. This may include installing mesh screens over vents and chimneys, and trimming tree branches that provide access to your roof.
Cleaning and Sanitization
Squirrels can leave behind droppings and nesting materials that pose health risks. We offer cleaning and sanitization services to remove these contaminants and restore a healthy environment.
Understanding Squirrel Behavior
Understanding squirrel behavior is crucial for effective removal and prevention. Squirrels are attracted to properties that offer food, water, and shelter. By addressing these factors, we can minimize the likelihood of future infestations.
Consider our comprehensive services to rid your home of not only squirrels but ant control as well.
Common Problems Caused by Squirrels
Squirrels may seem cute and harmless, but they can cause significant problems when they invade your property. Understanding these issues can help you recognize the need for professional squirrel removal services. We can help in other areas of the Bay Area like Union City as well as Hayward.
Gnawed Wires
Squirrels have a natural urge to gnaw on objects to keep their teeth sharp. Electrical wires are a common target, which can lead to short circuits, power outages, and even fires. Addressing this promptly is crucial to ensure home safety. Our rodent control services extend to this problem.
Damaged Insulation
Squirrels often tear apart insulation to create nests, which can reduce the energy efficiency of your home and increase your utility bills. Damaged insulation also provides a breeding ground for other pests and can lead to moisture problems and mold growth.
Roof Damage
Squirrels can cause significant damage to your roof by chewing through shingles, fascia boards, and soffits. This can lead to leaks, water damage, and costly repairs. Regular inspections and maintenance can help prevent this issue. Our services extend into home maintenance.
Contaminated Attics
Squirrels leave behind droppings and urine, which can contaminate your attic and create an unsanitary environment. These contaminants can attract other pests, spread diseases, and create unpleasant odors. Professional cleaning and sanitization are essential to restore a healthy living space. We even offer spider removal after cleaning a contaminated attic.
Noises in the Attic or Walls
Hearing scratching, scurrying, or other noises in your attic or walls is a clear sign of a squirrel infestation. These noises can be disruptive and unsettling, and they indicate that squirrels are actively causing damage to your property. Addressing the issue promptly can prevent further damage and ensure a peaceful living environment. Often, other pests such as cockroaches can benefit from the debris left by squirrels.
Signs You Need Professional Squirrel Removal
Recognizing the signs of a squirrel infestation early on can help prevent significant damage to your property and protect your family's health. Here are some common indicators that you need professional squirrel removal services.
Droppings and Nesting Materials
Finding squirrel droppings or nesting materials in your attic, basement, or around your property is a clear sign of an infestation. These materials can be contaminated with bacteria and parasites, posing health risks to your family. Professional cleaning and removal are essential to eliminate these hazards. Our services include wildlife control for anything else that's made their home in your attic.
Damaged Gardens and Bird Feeders
Squirrels are notorious for raiding gardens and bird feeders in search of food. If you notice significant damage to your plants or empty bird feeders despite regular refills, it's likely that squirrels are the culprits. Taking steps to protect your garden and bird feeders can help deter squirrels from your property.
Visible Squirrel Activity
Seeing squirrels frequently on your roof, in your yard, or entering your home is a clear sign of an infestation. Squirrels are most active during the day, so pay attention to their behavior and movements around your property. Identifying entry points and nesting areas can help you develop a targeted removal plan.
Unexplained Damage
If you notice unexplained damage to your home, such as chewed wires, holes in your roof, or damaged insulation, it's possible that squirrels are to blame. These types of damage can be costly to repair, so addressing the issue promptly is crucial to minimize further harm. It's a good idea to check other potential areas of damage, such as spider removal, or even checking the plumbing.
Preventing Future Squirrel Infestations
Once you've addressed a squirrel infestation, it's important to take steps to prevent future problems. Here are some effective strategies for keeping squirrels away from your property. These strategies can also keep other insects away, such as silverfish control.
Seal Entry Points
Sealing off potential entry points is one of the most effective ways to prevent squirrels from entering your home. Inspect your property for cracks, holes, and gaps around windows, doors, pipes, and vents. Use durable materials like caulk, wire mesh, or metal flashing to seal these openings. Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify and address new entry points as they appear.
Trim Tree Branches
Squirrels often use tree branches to access your roof and other parts of your home. Trim tree branches that overhang your roof to eliminate this easy access route. Maintain a distance of at least 6-8 feet between tree branches and your home. Regular pruning can also improve the overall health and appearance of your trees.
Secure Food Sources
Squirrels are attracted to properties that offer easy access to food. Secure food sources by storing garbage in sealed containers, cleaning up spilled birdseed, and keeping pet food indoors. Consider using squirrel-resistant bird feeders or suspending them from wires to prevent squirrels from reaching them. Eliminating food sources can make your property less attractive to squirrels.
Use Repellents
Various squirrel repellents are available to deter squirrels from your property. These repellents typically contain ingredients like peppermint oil, capsaicin, or mothballs, which squirrels find unpleasant. Apply repellents around your home, garden, and other areas where squirrels are likely to congregate. Reapply repellents regularly, especially after rain or watering.
