squirrel control

The gray squirrel is the most common squirrel, inhabiting over 2/3 of the United States. These furry creatures come in a variety of colors, from pure black to pure white, and all shades in between. The squirrel's tail plays an important role in communication, locomotion and insulation. 

Their ideal habitat is a forest of oak, beech, and hickory trees, which provide food and natural cover.

Yard Protection

Since most squirrels are active throughout the day you can easily observe areas where they spend most of their time.

This will help when deciding the best control options to keep squirrels from damaging your yard and gardens.

Squirrel Exclusion

Squirrels are difficult to exclude from a yard or garden since they are excellent climbers. In order to keep squirrels from damaging small trees, protect them with garden netting.

For larger trees that are more difficult to cover, use a wide collar made of sheet metal or plexiglass. Make the sheet metal about 2 feet wide and position it around the bottom of the tree, make sure to leave enough room for tree growth.

Another way to keep squirrels from damaging trees is to cut branches off the tree.

If squirrels manage to get into your home's attic through an opening in your roof, particulary in the soffit or roof vent, your best method of preventing them from re-entering is to use exclusion.

Fix the opening and any weathered areas that squirrels could easily chew through and gain access to your home. Note: Just be sure that you have removed all of the squirrels before pursuing this option.

Squirrels breed once or twice a year and give birth to a varying number of young after three to six weeks, depending on species. The young are born naked, toothless, and blind. In most species of squirrel, only the female looks after the young, which areweaned at around six to ten weeks of age and become sexually mature at the end of their first year. Ground-dwelling species are generally social animals, often living in well-developed colonies, but the tree-dwelling species are more solitary.

Ground and tree squirrels are typically diurnal or crepuscular,while flying squirrels tend to be nocturnal—except for lactating flying squirrels and their offspring, which have a period of diurnality during the summer.
