There are many reasons people desire to have this pest trapped and removed. Squirrels are usually classified as a pest species due to the annoyance of them trying to live in our  houses.

The most common complaints we get field calls for are:

 

Dallas Squirrel Removal

Squirrels love to live in attics. They also love to chew and will do so on houses or wires, ducts, and pipes once inside an attic. Nobody likes hearing the noises of squirrels in the ceiling, attic or eaves, however the chewing can become a problem. Squirrels often chew on electrical wires in attics, and create fire hazards. Squirrels also bring in nesting material and leave urine and feces in your attic.

Sometimes, squirrels will chose to nest inside chimneys instead of attics. When doing this they can get stuck and frantically scratch, or sometimes even get into the fireplace and inside the house.

The best way to get rid of squirrels in your house is to seal up all entry points. However, it’s not that simple. You won’t want to seal up the entry points while the squirrels are still inside your home, so observing your intruder’s habits will help you decide when to take action. Squirrels are very territorial and difficult to remove once they have created a nest. If you're struggling to removal squirrels on your own, Rapid Rodent Removal has trapping specialists Call Now for help.

 Zoonotic diseases are infections that animals can pass to people through bites, feces, urine, or external parasites. Probably the best known and most serious of these diseases is rabies, a virus that attacks not only wildlife but people and pets, as well. To be safe, never handle or try to trap an animal that seems to be sick or showing unusual behavior. Leave the procedure to pest management professionals or local animal damage control experts.

 

Squirrels in your home or walls ? Information

There are 10 species of squirrel in Texas. Only 3, however, are commonly found in the DFW area:

  • Fox Squirrel

  • Southern Flying Squirrel

  • Thirteen Lined Ground Squirrel.

Tree squirrels are interesting animals, but in urban and suburban areas they can become pests.

Fox squirrels, the most common of the tree squirrels, are most often seen or heard during the day (although fox squirrels have been occasionally noted to exhibit nighttime activity). Therefore, sounds of running or gnawing coming from the attic during the day often indicate the presence of squirrels whereas running, squealing and gnawing sounds at night generally indicate the presence of rats or raccoons. 

Tree squirrels feed on a variety of material: nuts, fruit, seeds, berries, insects and bark make up the bulk of their diet. They may eat pecans, fruits, berries, bird seed or vegetables in home gardens and, in many cases, this makes it difficult to establish Squirrel Control on your property. Squirrels don't just gather the food they need at that moment -- they gather and stock up for the future. These rodents take up residence in nests that offer storage space, like the hollow of a tree, an empty animal burrow or a house's attic. When a squirrel gathers food like nuts, seeds, acorns and berries, he carries them in his mouth back to his nest, where he stores them. Alternatively, he may bury food in the ground at different places around the neighborhood, where his sense of smell later leads him to unearth it. Click here to read Is a Squirrel a rodent ?

Generally, squirrels live in the holes of tree trunks or in abandon crow’s nests but in suburban areas it is very common for squirrels to nest in soffit holes, attics, or crawl spaces causing extensive damage in those areas. Once inside your home, squirrels may gnaw on and damage electrical wiring, causing fire hazards.

Squirrels breed throughout the year, but breeding peaks occur in July-September and December-February. The young are born in 40-45 days and remain in the nest for about six weeks. During this six week period, they are blind, nearly naked and develop slowly. Their eyes open at five weeks, but they do not climb out of the nest for at least seven or eight weeks. After that, they live in family groups for about a month while they begin foraging for themselves. By the time they are three months old, they can fend for themselves and at six months old they have reached adult size. At ten or eleven months they reach sexual maturity, and the cycle can begin again.

Squirrels In Attic

The most common residential squirrel problem of Dallas, Tx are squirrels in the attic. Oftentimes squirrels will take advantage of any small imperfection of a home in order to gain access to an attic. Squirrels will chew holes in the gutter line, roofs, or use a home's vents. Once a squirrel has gained access to an attic they will often chew on electrical wires, soil insulation and will even smash the insulation compromising the heating and cooling factor of the insulation. These pest rodents should never be allowed to stay in your attic. Call a reputable wildlife control company to have the squirrels removed properly. Rapid Rodent Removal provides the most complete effective squirrel control services throughout Collier County, Texas.

Squirrel Exclusion

Squirrel Exclusions are the most humane and effective solution to remove squirrels in an attic or home. An exclusion is the process of removing the squirrels and sealing any vulnerable and possible entry points an animal may use to gain access to the home. During the exclusion process one entry point will be left open to allow the animals to exit the home but does not allow for reentry. Once it has been determined that the attic or home is free of squirrels this last entry point will be sealed. This allows the animals to leave the home safely and naturally without placing any harm or stress on the animal. Squirrel Exclusions are the most humane effective solutions to get rid of squirrels and prevent future infestations of your Dallas, Texas home.

Squirrel Damage

Squirrels are very aggressive chewers that can cause serious damage to a home in a short amount of time. The longer the squirrel is allowed to remain in the home the more extensive the damage will become.

 Squirrel Removal Pest Control Tips to Squirrel Proof Your Home

Practice good sanitation for prevention. Don’t leave pet foods out in the open and keep garbage cans and barbecue grills covered.

 Squirrel proof your trees and shrubs by pruning branches six feet away from the ground and from the roof of your property. Trees that are sufficiently far apart from each other can be squirrel-proofed by fastening a 12-inch-wide band of sheet metal around the trunks six feet from the ground.

 Cage your bulbs by setting metal cages into planting holes. Alternatively, place a wire mesh over the entire bed once you’ve finished planting. To avoid interference with new growth.

 Use barriers for your flowers and vegetables: Various barriers—chicken wire, hardware cloth, 1- to 2-inch metal mesh—can be spread over the ground and cut to fit around plant stems. Or completely cover over newly planted vegetables with a chicken wire fence.

 Set up a diversion feeding station. It can take squirrels just a few minutes to figure out how to break into your bird-feeder, so distract them with their own alternative feeder somewhere else.

Squirrels Facts & Identification

Squirrels are generally small animals, ranging in (2.8–3.9 in) in length, and just 10 g (0.35 oz) in weight, to the which is 53–73 cm (21–29 in) long, and weighs from 5 to 8 kg (11 to 18 lb). Squirrels typically have slender bodies with bushy tails and large eyes. Their fur is generally soft and silky, although much thicker in some species than others. The color of squirrels is highly variable between species.

 

As their large eyes indicate, squirrels generally have an excellent sense of vision, which is especially important for tree-dwelling species. They also have very versatile and sturdy claws for grasping and climbing. Many also have a good sense of touch, with vibrissae on their heads and limbs.

 

Squirrel Removal and Squirrel Proofing

Squirrels breed once or twice a year, and give birth to a varying number of young after three to six weeks, depending on species. Ground and tree squirrels are typically diurnal, while flying squirrels tend to be nocturnal—except for lactating flying squirrels and their offspring which have a period of diurnality during the summer.

Squirrels, or even one squirrel can be an extreme nuisance to your living environment. Whether they are in your attic or finding their way into your home or office, it is important to get the problem remedied before they become a larger problem.

 Quick Catch offers squirrel removal and squirrel proofing services to Jacksonville and surrounding North Florida areas including Nassau, Duval, St. Johns, Clay, Putnam, and Baker counties.

 

frequently asked questions by experts about infestations and extermination of flying squirrels, gray squirrel, or other animal wildlife in your house

 

Do you have a squirrel infestation?

Squirrels can cause a lot of damage

Squirrels are like rats and mice, and must gnaw on things to wear their teeth down, while destroying electrical wiring, air conditioning duct work and dry wall. Squirrel removal is essential to prevent costly damage in your home or office. At Quick Catch we not only remove the animals, we also offer animal-proofing service to help prevent a re-occurrence.

Squirrels are unsanitary and could cause negative health effects

Squirrels typically leave their feces and urine on the attic insulation and in various places in your home, or office, producing a strong and repulsive smell, and could also cause negative health effects. This smell can increase when a squirrel dies and begins to decompose. The dead animal carcass is covered in parasites and additional odorous bacteria that really need to be removed.

Squirrels carry diseases

Squirrels may look very cute but they are also very dangerous. It is possible for a squirrel to have rabies but very unlikely. Anything large enough to bite a squirrel, that would also carry the rabies virus, would probably just kill that squirrel, rather than infecting them. Be careful! Squirrels can bite.  If bitten by a squirrel, seek medical attention promptly, to prevent the risk of infection. This is another reason why removal is absolutely necessary, and should be delegated to the professionals.

How Do We Remove Squirrels ?

Trapping squirrels is the most effective way to remove them.

Some other wildlife and animal control companies sometimes use other methods for squirrel removal but these other methods are not as effective and sometimes inhumane. Some companies will use poison to kill wildlife and animals that are causing problems, but the animal will probably die in the attic or in a wall, and produce a horrible stench. Then the removal of the dead squirrel carcass will be necessary. Based on our exhaustive research, the squirrel needs to be trapped and then relocated far enough away that it will not come back.

After squirrels are removed, animal repair and intrusion prevention services are recommended

We can assess damage caused by the squirrels and repair holes or gaps, and close off possible entry ways into your home, or attic.

What are ways to Detect A Squirrel Problem?

Seeing squirrels going into the crawl space under your home or business (squirrels can crawl up walls, into the attic, and do significant damage)

Finding feces or urine stains in your attic can be an indicator of a squirrel problem

Hearing noises or rustling in the attic can be an indication that there was or is a squirrel problem

Finding gnawed wiring or air conditioning duct work is a common way to detect there could be a squirrel problem
