Squirrel Control
in Columbus, Akron, Cleveland, Ohio and surrounding areas
Sure, they may look cute on your porch while eating a nut with both hands, but what happens when they constantly steal food from birds and find their way into your attic? Squirrel control can drive you nuts, but enlisting professional wildlife control services can help you reclaim your backyard, birdfeeders, and beyond.
Squirrel Control
Many pest control solutions include eliminating food sources from the area so there’s no incentive to cross your property lines. However, many homeowners set up birdfeeders and baths to cater to some of the more pleasant backyard wildlife. Some of these homeowners have devised creative solutions to keeping uninvited guests to these feeders—namely, squirrels. From slippery metal poles to cone-shaped barriers, some of these solutions work, and others are foiled by equally crafty creatures.
If squirrels are taking over your backyard, terrorizing birds and children, and getting into your home, it’s time to call in the pros. Professional wildlife control teams have experience dealing with the many ways squirrels and other pests get around barriers and traps. They also know the best spots to release any trapped squirrel and prevent them from returning to your yard.
Pest Prevention
Like other pests, squirrels can find a way inside your home through openings you may not even know exist. Regular maintenance around your home, especially in areas you don’t frequent, can help prevent an unwanted visitor. Trim shrubs, vines, and overhanging tree limbs that could be used as a bridge into your home. Seal cracks, crevices, and holes. Protect your chimney and other ventilation openings.
If they gain access, squirrels are not only capable of causing damage by scratching and chewing, but they can also get nervously excited and go on a thrashing spree, knocking over anything in its way. Trapped squirrels may also die before escaping. A professional pest control company will know the best way to remove it in this situation.
