Squirrel in Attic
Squirrel Removal throughout Texas is handled by Wildlife Control experts in Tyler, Austin, Midland, Dallas, Houston, Galveston, Corpus Christi, and surrounding areas. The peak seasons that Squirrels will invade your home and attic are the spring and fall. This is when they will start searching for a space that is suitable for them to have squirrel babies.
Squirrels typically have up to three liters of babies every years. Many homes that have problems with squirrels will continue to have squirrel related issues until the house is properly squirrel proofed. Commonly, Squirrels are removed by performing a squirrel exclusion. A Squirrel exclusion is a process of putting a barrier completely around the house so that a squirrel can not gain entry into an attic. A squirrel exclusion is most often done with a metal barrier so that the squirrel can not chew threw it.
Squirrel exclusions should be performed by a knowledgeable and skilled wildlife control company to ensure that the work is done properly. This will ensure the exclusion is done correctly to remove the squirrels and prevent any type of re-entry. If it is not done correctly, it will ultimately fail and they squirrels will regain entry into the attic or worse will be forced into the living space of the home. There have been countless times that a homeowner has had an animal in the living space after having a handyman attempt to take care of their animal problem.
Most Wildlife removal companies will come out and do a thorough inspection of the exterior and attic area of your home to diagnose the problem. This evaluation will include what type of animal is in the home, how the animal accessed the home and where in the home is the animal living. Once it has been determined what type of animal and how the animal got into the home, the Wildlife Technician will decide what the best method to remove the animal will be. If it is determined a squirrel exclusion is the best method to get rid of the squirrel, several measurements will be takes. With the measurements taken into consideration, the Wildlife Technician can provide an accurate cost of the exclusion.
What type of sounds do I hear?
Most often home owners call with complaints of hearing sounds in the walls, or ceilings. A good indication that you may have a squirrel problem would be hearing scratching noises in the attic portion of their home, and also complaints of hearing scampering in running sounds in the attic. Sometimes these sounds may sound very loud and can be very alarming if you hear these sounds above you in middle of the night.
