Health Risks of Squirrels
Squirrels, much like rats and mice, carry many diseases that can potentially cause serious harm to humans, our families and pets. It is always important to exercise caution around squirrels and their feces, as bites or coming into contact with feces are the primary modes of squirrels transmitting diseases.
How Squirrels Can Cause Serious Property Damage
Squirrels are very destructive critters. One of their worst issues is that squirrels can gain access to virtually any part of your home by simply chewing through almost any building material. In fact, their strong jaws and sharp teeth can give them access to virtually anywhere. Since most squirrels live in attics of homes, the wiring can be very badly damaged, potentially causing fire hazards.
One of their most serious destructive habits is their penchant for destroying building materials which often provide structural integrity for your home. When gnawed on by squirrels, structural elements can weaken, potentially failing and causing massive repair bills.
Squirrels love to gain access to chimneys. Once inside, they often build nests that provide them warmth. These nests are made of dry, flammable material. If a fire is lit, the chimney can very quickly go up in flames, potentially burning a home or other building to the ground.
How Can I Remove Squirrels?
Squirrels can present a serious problem to homeowners and businesses, but it can seem relatively simple to remove them.
In theory, simply setting a cage trap or installing a one-way door would do the trick.
In practice, it is rarely as cut and dry as it sounds.
In many cases, a squirrel that gets into your home is a mother who is about to have her young.
If you remove the mother squirrel, her young will die slow, painful deaths in your home.
Aside from the inhumanity, this can also create a terrible smell throughout your house.
This is the reason that most people elect to have a professional wildlife removal service to remove squirrels from their homes and other buildings, and we definitely recommend you do the same.
