Squirrels are one of the most common species of wildlife encountered in the Greater Boston area suburb of Winchester. While they may be fun to watch as they run along sidewalks and scamper up trees, they become less enjoyable if they decide to nest in your Winchester home or business. If these agile rodents manage to get inside, they can be increasingly difficult to remove. Fortunately, Critter Control® of Boston is equipped to provide safe and effective squirrel removal services.
Signs of Invasive Squirrels
Due to their small size and evasive habits, invasive squirrels can be hard to locate and even harder to catch. If you suspect nuisance squirrels are nesting on your property, look for the following signs:
- Increased Activity: One of the earliest indicators of a squirrel problem is noticing more squirrels than usual on your property or rooftop. Squirrels don’t tend to go far from their nest, meaning it’s likely they are dwelling near or inside your home or business.
- Noises: Squirrels make squeaking sounds to communicate with each other. They’ll also make scratching and scampering noises as they move about and build their nest.
- Smells: Likely to be noticed in your attic or garage, squirrel droppings and urine leave dark stains and a strong ammonia-like smell which can be toxic if inhaled.
The longer these critters stick around your property, the more time they have to cause damage and wreak havoc. As soon as you notice any of these signs of invasive squirrels, call the experts at Critter Control® of Boston.
