Signs Of Squirrel Infestation And Wildlife Damage Around The Home
There are several signs to look for regarding squirrel problems.
Squirrels tend to be territorial and will mark accordingly, some things to look for
include chew marks, urine stained roof shingles, and of course, holes.
Pictures from left to right:
1. Squirrel damage to home

as a preventative tactic and the squirrels chewed right through them

4. Hole in roof
5. Signs of chewing and impending attic invasion, there are also urine stained roof shingles in this area.
Call us immediately if you see this around your house, as it is a sure sign the squirrels will be moving in soon.
6. An example of squirrels chewing through electrical wires, a very dangerous home hazard you should avoid.
Squirrels like to chew on trees and homes as a way to mark their territory; they also do it to gain access
to various areas and to keep their large front incisor teeth nice and sharp.
Squirrels can chew right through the middle of your cedar or composition roof.
If there is one thing that we get more wildlife control calls and complaints about,
it is squirrels. One might think that they are part of the beaver family because of
how much they chew and destroy things. A squirrel's brain is about the size of an average walnut,
so you do not want one in your attic thinking that your electrical wires are tasty tree limbs.
