Squirrel Control Services

Squirrels look harmless until you’re looking at a chewed-through wire or a hole in the soffit they’ve widened over several weeks. Their constant need to gnaw makes them one of the more damaging animals to leave unaddressed in a wall or attic.

The Hidden Cost of Squirrels in Your Walls

Beyond the noise of scratching and running overhead, squirrels chew wiring, insulation, and structural wood, which can create fire risk and expensive repairs if it goes on long enough. Multiple squirrels in one space usually means a nest, not a single visitor.

Removal That Also Fixes the Entry Point

We trap and remove squirrels humanely, then identify and seal the specific gap they used to get in, typically at a roofline, vent, or soffit corner. Any chewed wiring or insulation is flagged so you can address it before it becomes a bigger issue.

How We Confirm the Job Is Actually Finished

Before sealing anything, we check for signs of a litter, since young squirrels left behind will keep the problem going even after the adult is removed. Once the space is confirmed clear, we close the entry point with chew-resistant materials, not just wood or standard caulk, which squirrels can work through in a matter of days.

We also look at nearby trees and rooflines that may be giving squirrels easy access to the roof in the first place, and flag any trimming that would help going forward. Squirrels are persistent, so a gap that’s only partially sealed is often reopened within days, which is why we favor slower, more thorough sealing work over a quick patch that looks finished but doesn’t hold.

We remove squirrels for homes across Arizona, California, and New Mexico. For long-term entry sealing, see our Wildlife Exclusion.
