\"WhyGrey squirrels may not be the first animals that come to your mind when you think of household pests, but these critters are notorious for wreaking havoc on Atlanta properties, requiring the attention of wildlife removal services<\/a>. If you suspect that grey squirrels have invaded your yard or home, reach out to grey squirrel removal<\/a> professionals before irreversible damage is done to your roof, attic, or plumbing.<\/p>\n

Signs of a Grey Squirrel Infestation<\/h2>\n
\n
    \n
  • Loud scratching and gnawing noises<\/li>\n
  • Squirrel droppings<\/li>\n
  • Nests in trees<\/li>\n
  • Small holes in yard<\/li>\n
  • Holes in siding of house<\/li>\n
  • Damaged plants<\/li>\n
  • Bite marks on tree bark<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    How Grey Squirrels Damage Property<\/h2>\n

    Grey squirrels can harm your roof and attic by bringing in debris to create nests. If leaves and sticks won’t suffice, they’ll chew and tear roofing, cables, and insulation to construct their nests. The destruction done by grey squirrels in attics can cause severe fire hazards as damaged electrical wires exist within the proximity of dry leaves and twigs. Squirrel droppings can contaminate water supplies, and squirrels can also chew pipes, resulting in the flooding of homes. Grey squirrels are also known to strip bark from trees to acquire tree sap. After the bark is stripped and the flow of sap is disrupted, that portion of the tree will become weak or die. These problems often compel homeowners to consider wildlife removal services.<\/p>\n

    Squirrel Invasion Prevention Tactics<\/h2>\n
    \n
      \n
    • Reduce Food Sources \u2013 Squirrels usually stick to a diet of fruits, fungi, plant buds, and nuts, and removing these food sources from your property can be difficult. However, you can reduce the amount of food by disposing of bird seed and other foods you may put in your yard.<\/li>\n
    • Use Lighting or Sound Devices \u2013 You can ward off squirrels by using ultrasonic sound producers, radio noise, and motion-activated lights, but these devices can also affect your pets negatively. Wildlife removal services may be the better option if your pets are exhibiting signs of anxiety or discomfort as a result of repellent noises.<\/li>\n
    • Limit Access to Your Property \u2013 Squirrels can jump onto tree branches on your property from 8 feet away. They can also scurry across washing lines and cables as if they were tightropes. Squirrels can squeeze through 2-inch gaps in and under fences. To limit their ability to enter your property, seal up holes and trim branches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
