Signs of a Squirrel Infestation
Squirrels are excellent climbers, and they can easily make their way into your home through small openings and gaps. Unfortunately, this means that they can be difficult to detect, and by the time you notice that you have a squirrel problem, the damage may already be done. That’s why it’s important to know the signs of a squirrel infestation, so you can call a professional for help as soon as possible.
Some common signs of a squirrel infestation include:
- Strange noises: If you hear strange scratching, scurrying, or chewing noises in your walls, attic, or crawlspaces, you may have a squirrel infestation. Squirrels are most active in the early morning and late afternoon, so listen carefully during these times.
- Droppings: Squirrel droppings are small and pellet-like, and they are usually found in areas where squirrels are known to nest, such as attics, crawlspaces, and chimneys.
- Chewed wires and insulation: Squirrels have a constant need to chew, and they will often chew through wires, insulation, and other materials to create nests and forage for food.
- Strange smells: Squirrels have a musky odor. If you have a squirrel infestation, you may notice a strange, musty smell in your home or business.
- Squirrel nests: Squirrels build nests out of twigs, leaves, and other materials. They are known to create nests in attics, chimneys, and other dark, secluded areas of your home.
If you notice any of the signs above, don’t wait to call a professional. At Gold Star Exterminators - Del Rio, we offer rapid, reliable squirrel control services to help you get rid of these pests quickly and safely. We also offer preventative services to help you keep your property squirrel-free.
How to Prevent a Squirrel Infestation
Squirrels are always on the lookout for food and shelter; limiting their access to these things can help prevent an infestation. In fact, there are several things you can do to help prevent squirrel problems before they start.
Some tips for preventing squirrel infestations include:
- Sealing cracks and crevices: Squirrels can fit through tiny openings, so it’s important to seal any cracks or crevices in your home’s foundation, walls, and roof. Use a silicone-based caulk or steel wool to seal any gaps, and be sure to check your home regularly for new openings.
- Trimming trees and shrubs: Squirrels can easily climb trees and shrubs to gain access to your roof and attic. To prevent squirrels from entering your home, keep trees and shrubs trimmed away from your home’s exterior.
- Removing food sources: Squirrels are always on the lookout for food, so it's important that you remove potential food sources. if you have a bird feeder, place it away from your home. You should also store pet food, trash, and other possible food sources in airtight containers.
