Professional Squirrel Trapping and Prevention Services
Safe, Humane, and Effective Squirrel Control for Homes and Businesses
Hearing scratching or scurrying noises in your attic or walls? You may have unwanted squirrel guests. While squirrels might look cute in your yard, they can cause serious damage once they move inside. Our expert team specializes in humane squirrel trapping, removal, and prevention to keep your home safe and pest-free.
The Dangers of a Squirrel Infestation
Squirrels are known for their constant chewing - and that behavior can cause major problems indoors. Once they nest in your attic or crawl space, squirrels can:
- Chew through wiring, creating a serious fire hazard
- Damage insulation and drywall while building nests
- Contaminate attic spaces with droppings and urine
- Create loud scratching and running noises, especially early in the morning
- Attract other pests like fleas, mites, and insects
At RPC, we follow a safe, humane, and effective process to remove squirrels and prevent them from returning:
- 1. Thorough Inspection
We inspect your attic, roofline, vents, and exterior to find squirrel entry points and nesting areas. - 2. Humane Trapping and Removal
Using live traps and one-way exclusion devices, we safely remove squirrels without harming them. - 3. Damage Repair and Cleanup
Once the animals are removed, we clean up droppings, remove nesting materials, and sanitize the affected areas. - 4. Exclusion and Prevention
We seal all entry points, install heavy-duty screening, and reinforce weak spots to prevent future access. - 5. Follow-Up Monitoring
Our team can schedule follow-up visits to ensure your home stays squirrel-free.
