Our Unique Approach to Pest Solutions
Comprehensive Property Inspection
Our squirrel removal process starts with a thorough inspection of your property. This allows us to identify the extent of the infestation, locate entry points, and understand the squirrels' nesting habits. We look for signs of squirrel activity, such as droppings, gnaw marks, and nesting materials.
Identifying Entry Points
Squirrels are resourceful creatures and can squeeze through surprisingly small openings. We meticulously inspect your home’s exterior, paying close attention to:
- Roof vents
- Chimneys
- Gable vents
- Damaged siding
- Overhanging tree branches
Safe and Humane Removal
Once we understand the full scope of the problem, we develop a customized removal plan that is safe for your family, pets, and the environment. We utilize humane trapping methods to capture squirrels without causing them harm.
Live Trapping
Live trapping involves setting baited traps in areas where squirrel activity is high. Once a squirrel is captured, we relocate it to a suitable habitat away from your property. The relocation site is carefully chosen to ensure the squirrel's survival and minimize the risk of it returning to your neighborhood.
Exclusion and Prevention Services
Simply removing the squirrels is not enough. To prevent future infestations, we implement exclusion measures to seal off entry points and make your property less attractive to squirrels. We provide both professional exterminator services, and also give our customers advice on DIY approaches to keep squirrels and pests away. Prevention is how we can assist you after providing a treatment, and ensure your home remains pest free. We do this by checking for cracks, holes, gaps in the foundation, roof, and around utilities. You will get a detailed pest-proofing report to do yourself, or we can take care of the work for you.
Sealing Entry Points
We use durable materials, such as wire mesh and sheet metal, to seal off entry points. This prevents squirrels from re-entering your home and establishing new nests. We also repair any damage caused by squirrels, such as gnawed wires or damaged insulation. Pest prevention measures such as trimming back trees away from the roof, sealing openings and food management are key components of professional pest prevention.
Habitat Modification
Making your property less attractive to squirrels can also help prevent future infestations. This may involve trimming back tree branches that overhang your roof, removing bird feeders, and securing garbage cans.
Rodent and Pest Control Problems We Solve In San Luis Obispo
Attic Infestations
Squirrels often seek shelter in attics, where they can cause significant damage to insulation, wiring, and other structural elements. This damage can lead to energy loss, fire hazards, and costly repairs. Our squirrel removal service includes the removal of squirrels from attics, as well as the repair of any damage they have caused, and preventative measures to keep them out.
Squirrels can be destructive, but often also carry diseases that are unhealthy for humans. The pests can also contaminate air ducts in your HVAC system when they nest in those areas. They may chew on wires and cause home fires. The combination of these hazardous conditions is serious and needs immediate attention. We can help eliminate these concerns, and give you peace of mind.
Yard Damage
Squirrels can also cause damage to your yard by digging holes, eating plants, and damaging trees. Our squirrel removal service includes strategies to protect your yard from squirrel damage, ensuring your landscape remains healthy and beautiful. There are a variety of other animals, and pest problems, that need to be addressed for the health of your garden. Pest solutions are needed, and we are the right choice.
Squirrels may dig holes in yards and destroy birdfeeders, but these can attract other unwanted guests. It is best to handle the small problem, before it becomes a bigger problem. Getting the situation handled quickly is necessary for quality of life.
Noise and Disruption
Squirrels can be noisy creatures, especially when they are active in your attic or walls. Their scratching, scampering, and gnawing can be disruptive and stressful. Our squirrel removal service eliminates these noises, allowing you to enjoy peace and quiet in your home. Squirrels often make loud noises in the attic, but depending on the season, and situation, it may also be raccoons. We will do a thorough inspection to accurately diagnose the pest issue properly.
Persistent noises in the walls or attic are more than just annoying; they can disrupt your sleep patterns and increase stress levels. Identifying the source of the noise promptly is crucial to prevent further structural harm caused by the vermin.
Health Concerns
Squirrels can carry diseases and parasites that can pose a health risk to humans and pets. Their droppings can also contaminate surfaces and lead to the spread of harmful bacteria. Our squirrel removal service includes the safe and hygienic removal of squirrels and their waste, reducing the risk of health problems.
Squirrels may carry fleas, ticks, and mites, which can transmit diseases to humans and pets. Their droppings also contain bacteria and pathogens that can cause food poisoning. You definitely want to prevent the spread of these problems.
Structural Damage
Squirrels can cause significant structural damage to your home by gnawing on wood, wires, and pipes. This damage can compromise the integrity of your home and lead to costly repairs. Our squirrel removal service includes the repair of squirrel damage, as well as preventative measures to protect your home from future damage. Our company is ready to help residents rid their homes of this kind of damage.
Wood that has been chewed can weaken structural supports, electrical wiring that has been gnawed can create fire hazards, and pipes that have been damaged can lead to water leaks. This damage is also sometimes not obvious or able to be seen without crawling into the space. That is why a professional inspection is so essential.
Preventative Solutions for Squirrel Pest Issues
Preventing squirrels from entering your home is a proactive measure. These include screening vents, capping chimmeys, sealing holes, and trimming tree branches. Sealing external cracks and openings can block access points, while removing food sources may discourage their presence around your home. Simple actions like these can reduce the likelihood of pests being around your home or business. Our company can assist you with this!
