Squirrel Control in Sacramento

The Dangers of Chewed Wiring and Structural Damage

Sacramento is known as the City of Trees, and while this greenery makes our neighborhoods beautiful, it also provides a natural highway for squirrels to access our rooftops. These agile creatures are persistent and capable of chewing through wood and aluminum to gain entry into attics, seeking warmth and safety for their nests. Once inside, the scratching sounds of their daytime activity can be incredibly disruptive, but the real concern lies in the physical damage they cause to insulation and electrical systems.

At Pest Pros Pest Solutions, we are equipped to handle the full range of pest issues that affect our local community, including wildlife intrusions. Our family-owned ownership team has more than 40 years of combined experience, giving us the expertise to manage wildlife situations with the necessary care and precision. We treat your property with the same respect we would show a neighbor's home, ensuring that we not only resolve the immediate disturbance but also secure your home against future unwanted guests.

Signs of a Squirrel Infestation

Unlike rats and mice, which are primarily active at night, squirrels are diurnal, meaning you are most likely to hear them scuffling around during the day. However, because they often nest in hard-to-reach areas like attics or crawlspaces, they can remain unseen for long periods while causing significant destruction. Identifying the problem early is the key to preventing costly repairs to your home’s infrastructure.

Here are the most common signs that squirrels have moved in:

• Daytime Noises: Loud scratching, scampering, or rolling sounds coming from the attic or ceiling during early morning and daylight hours.
• Exterior Damage: Visible holes in fascia boards, soffits, or torn roof vents where squirrels have gnawed their way inside.
• Chewed Wires: Squirrels constantly gnaw to maintain their teeth, often targeting electrical wiring, which can create serious fire hazards.
• Nesting Material: Finding insulation, shredded paper, or leaves piled up in your attic or near roof vents.
• Garden Damage: While not inside, excessive digging in your yard or partially eaten fruit from trees can indicate a high local population looking for shelter.

If you suspect squirrels have breached your home, it is vital to act fast. Their gnawing capability allows them to widen small entry points quickly, inviting more wildlife and weather damage into your property.

Our Approach to Wildlife Exclusion

At Pest Pros Pest Solutions, we understand that handling wildlife requires a different strategy than dealing with insects. We do not just focus on removing the animal; we focus on the structure of your home and the behaviors that led to the intrusion. Our goal is to provide a long-term solution that keeps your family safe and respects the local ecosystem. We operate with a "Whatever It Takes" mindset to ensure the job is done right.

Our process includes:

• Comprehensive Inspection: We examine your roof, eaves, and vents to locate every potential entry point and assess the extent of the infestation.
• Humane Removal: We utilize effective, safe methods to remove the squirrels from your property without causing unnecessary harm.
• Structural Exclusion: Our team installs durable pest barriers and repairs entry points to prevent squirrels from re-entering.
• Preventative Instruction: We advise you on habitat modifications, such as trimming tree branches away from the roof, to deter future activity.

By combining our extensive knowledge with high-quality materials, we deliver results that earn your trust. We are committed to personal growth and staying up to date with the best practices for wildlife control to serve you better.

The Importance of Professional Service

Attempting to remove squirrels on your own can be dangerous and is often ineffective. Wildlife can become aggressive when cornered or when protecting their young, posing a physical threat to untrained homeowners. Additionally, working on ladders and rooftops to reach entry points carries significant safety risks. Without the proper tools and training, it is easy to accidentally trap an animal inside the walls, leading to further damage and unpleasant odors.

Professional service is essential because effective squirrel control is about more than just trapping; it is about exclusion. Professionals know how to identify the structural vulnerabilities that allowed the animals in and have the materials to seal those gaps permanently. A standard handyman repair often lacks the durability to withstand a squirrel's teeth, whereas professional exclusion materials are designed specifically to withstand wildlife tampering.

Furthermore, there are legal and ethical considerations regarding the handling and relocation of wildlife in California. Licensed professionals understand local regulations and ensure that the removal process is conducted lawfully and humanely. Relying on experts ensures the safety of the animal, the homeowner, and the property structure.
