Wild squirrels are a familiar sight in public parks and residential yards across Dorchester, MA. However, these agile rodents can quickly turn into a serious nuisance if they break into your home or commercial building. Over time, an unchecked infestation can lead to extensive structural damage, soiled insulation, and potential safety hazards. Thankfully, the squirrel removal specialists at Critter Control® of Boston are equipped to deliver reliable, safe solutions to evict squirrels and secure your property from damage.
The Problem with DIY Squirrel Removal
When faced with an infestation, many property owners attempt to resolve the issue using traps, sprays, or DIY repellents. However, handling squirrel removal on your own can often create more complications than it solves:
-
Risk of Injury and Disease
Frightened or cornered squirrels can scratch or bite you or your pets. Additionally, handling wild animals, their droppings or contaminated insulation without protective equipment can expose you to airborne pathogens and parasites like fleas and ticks.
-
Accidental Trapping of Wildlife
Sealing up holes without confirming all squirrels are out can trap the critters (and their babies) inside your home. This leads to structural damage as the squirrels attempt to chew their way out, or results in dead squirrels decaying within your walls.
-
Incomplete Solutions
Store-bought deterrents rarely address the root cause of an infestation. Without identifying and sealing every potential entry point along your roofline and soffits, squirrels will simply find another way back inside.
-
Unnecessary Expense
Purchasing ineffective traps, chemical repellents, and temporary patches can add up fast and delay the professional care needed to solve the problem permanently.
