Squirrels

Around this area, there are four major species of squirrel that you may deal with. These species are the eastern gray squirrel; the fox squirrel; the red squirrel, sometimes known as pine squirrels; and the southern flying squirrel. There is a northern flying squirrel too, but they are very rare in our area. The most frequent would-be resident of your business or home is the gray squirrel, probably followed by the flying squirrel. These prolific, pesky rodents can easily chew through your roof or wires, and in the case of the nocturnal flying squirrel, keep you awake all night doing it! The Critter Guy has a wide range of professional humane squirrel traps and exclusion devices at our disposal, and a wide range of experience and materials to neatly repair the residential and commercial damage they are so good at creating.

Squirrel Damage

We've gotten a couple of decent pictures of the horrible things squirrels can do to houses and other buildings.

A gable vent with a huge hole chewed out of it by squirrels — A squirrel chewed out this gable vent, gaining access to the attic of this house. If they get inside, they'll probably be up to no good in there. To add insult to injury, other animals such as bats can come in too.

A flying squirrel pokes its head out of a hole chewed in a wooden wall — These flying squirrels wanted to prove their raw destructive power, so they chewed through a wall to show how determined they are.
