With their fluffy tails and bright eyes, squirrels are a common sight in parks, quiet yards, and wooded areas. Like any other wild animal, squirrels are a part of nature. Most of the time, they can go on living near your home quite peacefully, but there are a few occasions when squirrel removal may be necessary.
Birdseed and Bulbs
If you have a flower garden or like to feed the local songbirds, you may start to be annoyed by squirrels interrupting these activities. Flower bulbs and birdseed both attract squirrels, as they provide an easily accessible food source. While having squirrels on your bird feeder or digging in your flowerbeds may not yet be grounds for squirrel removal, squirrels can also cause more serious damage.
In the Attic
Squirrels outside in nature are one thing, but squirrels inside your home are quite another. If you have squirrels entering your attic, then you absolutely have grounds for squirrel removal. Your attic presents a cozy space for squirrels to nest, but they may chew holes to enter the attic, nibble on electric wires, and leave nesting material and droppings behind. Not only can the squirrel droppings create an unhealthy environment, damaged electric wires can pose a fire hazard.
