Squirrels can create several serious threats to property and health risks:
Their habit of chewing on electrical wires can wear down insulation, exposing live wires and creating a serious fire hazard.
They can chew through wooden beams, roofing materials and pipes, compromising the structure of your property and leading to costly repairs.
Squirrels can tear and compact insulation in attics and walls for nesting, reducing its effectiveness and increasing energy bills. Their waste can also contaminate insulation.
Droppings and urine can accumulate, creating unpleasant odors and potentially introducing bacteria.
Squirrels can bring fleas, ticks, mites, and other parasites into your home, which can then infest pets and humans.
They can destroy bird feeders, raid gardens, and damage trees
Preventing squirrel problems focuses heavily on exclusion and habitat modification:
Seal up all potential access spots around your property including holes in your roof, vents, soffits, fascia boards and around chimneys. Use thick gauge mesh, steel or other strong materials for better protection.
Keep squirrels from having easy access to your attic by trimming tree branches and plants away from your roof.
Put a cap over your chimney and install mesh covers over all attic and dryer vents.
Keep birdseed, pet food and other dry goods in strong air tight containers..
Clean up fallen fruit and nuts from your yard.
