Squirrel Infestation – Why Are Squirrels In My Attic?
Squirrels, like many rodents, are clever and adaptable. In nature, squirrels live in the treetops of densely forested areas (or in burrows in the case of ground squirrels), in locations with an abundance of nut-producing trees. Branches in tall trees offer protection from predators and also serve as a food source.
However, as human activity has increasingly turned forests into cities and subdivisions, squirrels have found new ways to exploit the landscape for their survival.
Squirrels possess extremely strong jaws, with teeth capable of chewing through shingles, wood, aluminum, and plastic. They can make short work of most any residential roof or wall. Once inside the house, they’ll bear their litter, which takes six to eight weeks to mature.

Species Of Squirrels That Infest Homes
Ground squirrels are burrowing pests, so while they can do significant damage to a garden, you generally won’t find them in your house. The other four are all occasional or frequent attic, garage, or crawlspace dwellers.
Grey Squirrels

The Grey is native to eastern North America, where it is the most prodigious and ecologically essential natural forest regenerator.
Red Squirrels
Sized between flying squirrels and grey squirrels, with average specimens growing to only six inches, half the size of grey squirrels. They tend to be territorial, reacting angrily to other animals. As a result, they tend to live on their own. Generally, they live in the northern states.

American red squirrels are also referred to as pine squirrels, North American red squirrels, boomers, and chickarees.
Fox Squirrels

The fox squirrel (Sciurus niger), also known as the eastern fox squirrel or Bryant’s fox squirrel, is the largest species of tree squirrel native to North America.
Flying Squirrels
Flying squirrels are the smallest of the group. Flying squirrels can glide between trees on the loose skin that they can extend out like wings. They occupy a footprint that closely matches the range of grey squirrels. Unlike the rest of the group, flying squirrels are nocturnal, so you may not know you have an infestation.

Flying squirrels are a tribe of 45 species of squirrels in the family Sciuridae and are able to glide from one tree to another with the aid of a patagium, a furry, parachute-like membrane that stretches from wrist to ankle.
Hiring The Right Company For Squirrel Removal
There are a lot of wildlife pest control companies operating in the United States, but not all of them are reliable, professional, or skilled enough to treat all infestations properly. To find a reputable squirrel removal specialist in your area, here are a few things to keep in mind.
Make sure they’re properly licensed and bonded. Never let an unlicensed company treat your home. It’s also a good idea to find customer recommendations. Instead of trusting the cherry-picked positive reviews that the company provides, check unbiased sources like Google, Yelp, and other review sites.
If they offer no-obligation estimates, have prospects come out to quote a price. Pay attention to how thorough they are when investigating your squirrel infestation. Ask them questions. The quality of their response reflects their professionalism and their squirrel removal experience.

Types Of Structural Damage Caused By Squirrels – Holes In The Roof and Attic Damage
Water damage is an obvious concern. Even small holes allow quite a bit of rain into your attic, and over time this can damage roof sheathing, attic flooring, insulation, and eventually the drywall on lower levels of your house.
Squirrels in the attic can also cause considerable damage, simply living in it. Feces can build up to intolerable levels, particularly if a nest exists. A litter of six babies can create a considerable amount of fecal contamination in the six to eight weeks in which they’re essentially immobile, unable to leave the attic area.
Adult squirrels chew on wood and other hard surfaces to grind down their teeth. In an attic, they’ll chew sheathing, rafters, trusses, and floor joists. It doesn’t take long for a squirrel to do thousands of dollars worth of damage. They’ll also chew on electrical wires, which makes them a fire hazard.
If you suspect a squirrel in your attic, quick action and squirrel removal are required to limit the damage to your home.
Squirrel Feces Cleanup and Attic Decontamination Services Offered By Professionals
Squirrels can carry quite a few ectoparasites, like fleas, ticks, and mites. Between the squirrels themselves and the bugs they carry, they can be vectors for tularemia, typhus, bubonic plague, Lyme disease, encephalitis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and ringworm.
A reputable squirrel decontamination company will carry out a variety of services to fully clean any biohazards left behind by a squirrel infestation including:
- Vacuuming small feces
- Hand-removing larger feces
- Decontaminating and disinfecting surfaces and insulation
- Fully replacing insulation that’s too contaminated to clean
- Treating lingering odors
- Destroying any accompanying insect infestations
By the end of a squirrel decontamination treatment, your attic should be clean, pest and disease-free, and safe to enter without risk of illness.
