Squirrel Removal Poway

Squirrels can be quite a nuisance in your home. They can enter your attic and cause extensive damage. They are not only annoying but can also cause structural damage and insulation degradation. Squirrels can also be a fire hazard because they love to chew on electrical wires. You are not the only one with a squirrel problem. Squirrels can be found in many areas of the United States and they cause problems for homeowners every day.

Poway is no exception. Because they can live year-round without freezing cold, squirrels love Poway California. Because of the mild winters in California, squirrels can stay active throughout winter. This means that homeowners are more likely than ever to see them at their homes searching for food and shelter. A squirrel infestation is something you don’t want to deal with. These rodents can cause significant damage to your property if they have no other place to go. There are likely to be some unwelcome guests living in your walls if you find something chewing on your attic or home.

Squirrels in the attic

Squirrels can be a pest in your home. They are persistent when it comes to finding a place in your attic, especially if you have weak spots on the roof or walls that they can chew through and get inside of your living area.

Attics are like playgrounds for squirrels. They can jump from one rafter to another, find their way in through any ventilation system or other hole that they have chewed into your attic.

As soon as you notice these critters in the attic, do not wait for them to cause bigger problems. Call our professional wildlife removal experts immediately!

Squirrel Removal in Poway, California

The best way to get rid of these critters from your home is to call a professional wildlife removal service (like us!). AAAC Wildlife Removal experts understand that squirrels can be a problem. We will help you find the right solution.

We use humane and up-to-date techniques that will not harm the squirrel. Our process involves trapping and exclusion of the nuisance animal as well as making sure that they don’t come back.

Professional Wildlife Trappers

Each one of our expert trappers is fully licensed and certified to handle nuisance wildlife. Our technicians are well trained in all aspects of animal removal and have years of experience with removing wildlife such as squirrels, raccoons, opossum, skunks, bats, snakes, etc.

Trapping is not something that homeowners can effectively do on their own, It involves a lot of work and knowledge about the behavior and activity patterns of different types of squirrels. We use state-of-the-art equipment for trapping and will make sure that the critters are removed safely and humanely.

Animal removal is usually a three-part process. Here’s how it works:

1. Setting up traps to catch the animal
2. Seal all entry holes to prevent re-entry
3. Inspection and repair of wildlife damage both inside and outside your home

Setting traps to catch a squirrel

We can use one-door or double-door traps, and place them where there is squirrel activity. The trap is baited with food that is irresistible to the squirrels. The trip plate is used to trigger the trap and snap the door shut to seal the animal in the cage.

Seal all entry holes

We will trap and remove all squirrels from your attic. Then, we will close any openings greater than 1/2 inch to stop more wildlife from getting into your home.

Inspection and Repair of Wildlife Damage

We then clean up and disinfect your attic. Then we install new insulation and re-install vents as needed before finishing with an overall restoration service for your attic.

Should I Get a Squirrel Exterminator?

Although squirrels can be quite a pest, poisoning them is a big no-no. Poison is best used for ant and termite colonies, not for wildlife. If you use it for squirrels, there is the real possibility of having dead squirrels inside your walls. It will create a terrible stench that will permeate the entire house.

Poisoned squirrels, before dying will also track the dangerous chemicals all over your home creating a dangerous situation for you and your family. Additionally, poisoned squirrels will die in difficult-to-reach places like under floors or inside walls, making it very hard to remove them.

Professional Squirrel removal by a company that is experienced in safely getting rid of nuisance critters is the best option. We also provide an attic clean-up and restoration service after we have removed the animal so that you don’t experience any more surprises. This includes cleaning and decontamination, as well as insulation replacement and wall repairs if needed.

Our Squirrel Trapping Process

• We first determine if trapping is necessary or if exclusion-based methods will be more effective.
• We choose from a dozen of so traps, depending on the size of animal we’re trying to trap.
• Place traps in places that we know the animals like to use.
• Bait the traps with food that squirrels find irresistible.
• Remove and relocate trapped animal.

Trapping or Exclusion

Sometimes traps may not be necessary when removing squirrels. Sometimes, exclusion-based methods are sufficient. Exclusion means using one-way doors that allow the squirrels to leave but prevent them from getting back inside after they’ve left the property.

Choosing the right trap

We make sure the trap we use to capture squirrels is just right. There are a number of traps that are available for squirrel removal and our team of experts will pick the one that is right for your job.

Place Traps in Key Areas

Knowing where to place the traps is one of the most important parts of this process. We will choose areas we believe the critters are active and place our traps there.

Bait with Food They Like

What food do you use to catch a squirrel? It’s important! Different baits work better for different species of wildlife, so professionals will choose the best bait for that specific type of wildlife.

Remove the Animal

After we catch the squirrels, removing them is usually pretty straightforward. We first ensure that they are out of your home or attic before sealing all other entry points shut. This will also prevent any other pests from entering your home.

Attic Clean Up and Decontamination

Squirrels will leave a terrible mess in your attic after living there for an extended period of time. There will be feces, hair, urine, and more that have to be dealt with. They will attract other pests like rats and cockroaches which can spread disease and illness throughout your home. We will perform a thorough attic clean-up and decontamination to remove all traces of the pests.

Attic Restoration Services

After all of the squirrel issues are resolved, we offer a complete restoration service that will return your attic to its former glory. This includes new insulation installation, reinstallation of vents that were damaged during squirrel removal and repair.

Wildlife Damage Repair

When they live in your attic, squirrels can cause major damage to your roof, vents, and soffits. They have sharp teeth that they use to widen openings and they will pull out insulation to make comfortable nests.

The damage outside can also be substantial, especially if the animals are living in your walls. The unsightly chewed-up siding or shingles will be noticed by your neighbors.

It is best to have a professional handle these problems so your home can be restored to its original condition. Our carpentry team is skilled and can complete all repairs quickly and effectively.

If these critters have caused serious damage to your home or business, call us today for Wildlife Damage Repair!

Why hire a professional?

Although it may seem easy to get rid of squirrels by yourself, the process can be more complex than you think. There are also serious risks! For example, squirrels have been known to carry parasites likes mites and bugs as well as several diseases such as rabies, Lyme disease, and leptospirosis.

These diseases can be deadly if not treated right away. Furthermore, trying to do any kind of wildlife removal yourself is illegal in California as rabies is a concern anytime you’re dealing with these wild animals.
