Know the Warning Signs

Do You Have Squirrels in Your Attic?

Chewed Materials

Squirrels can be destructive little animals, being known to chew wood, ductwork, and even electrical wires. This can create both fire and health risks, but not to worry, because our cleanup services can help.

Nesting

If you see leaves, twigs, insulation, or shredded materials gathered in your attic or soffits, squirrels are the likely culprit, so you need squirrel removal services for your Columbus home.

Droppings and Urine

A major reason squirrels in attics need to be removed is because the waste they leave behind can is a health hazard. If you see small, brown-to-dark cylindrical droppings near a nest or even ceiling stains with a strong ammonia scent, squirrels are the likely source.

Outdoor Signs

Squirrels that have nested in attics can often be seen in the morning and late afternoon running along the roofline of a home and disappearing into the same spot.

About Squirrels in Columbus Attics

There are several species of squirrels in and around Columbus, Ohio. These include common tree squirrels, thirteen striped squirrels, fox squirrels, gray squirrels, and even some flying squirrels. Some squirrels may even be a mix of different types.

Reproduction

Squirrels generally pair up with a mate for life. Once paired up, it may not be long before baby squirrels are produced, creating new problems for your attic. Mature female squirrels may have young more than once a year. Babies may be born in the spring, fall, or both.

Distribution

Squirrels often will invade an attic or climb down into a chimney, and they can be very destructive little animals. They chew wood, ductwork, and even electrical wires. Squirrels are actually a major cause of home electrical fires, which is reason enough to reach out to our Columbus squirrel removal service. From damaging gardens and insulation to releasing foul smells, squirrels (and chipmunks) lead to many problematic situations.

Nesting/birthing periods for squirrels in Ohio tend to run from February to April and July to August, with young squirrels being born and more dependent on parents during these times.

Discovering squirrels in or around your property can be a cause for concern. If you’re in Columbus, Ohio, or the surrounding areas, trust Critter Removal for professional squirrel removal services. Our certified experts specialize in humane squirrel removal and exclusion, ensuring the safety of your property and the squirrels themselves.

What Happens When You Wait

Droppings Are a Health Hazard

Any animal droppings and urine can pose health risks, and squirrels’ waste can cause respiratory issues, gastrointestinal infections, and leptospirosis, and can even create welcoming environments for parasites.

Ongoing Destruction and Dangers

A squirrel that’s gotten into your attic or soffits for just a few weeks or a month or so can do some damage, but one that’s lived there for years, or a whole family, can be incredibly destructive. Not only can they damage the wood and ductwork of your home, but since they often chew wires, an electrical fire could start at any moment. Getting things taken care of sooner rather than later is vital.
