Squirrel Removal Services

Baby squirrels are completely immobile for the first 8 weeks of life. For this reason, trapping baby squirrels is not an option. This means that all raccoon squirrel removals are completed by hand. Pest Kings Wildlife & Pet Control will start your squirrel removal service during the birthing season with a complete search of the nest site to ensure all babies are found and removed. 

We highly discourage anyone other than a certified pest control specialist from removing baby squirrels from an attic, as you can end up face to face with an extremely angry and dangerous mother. Here are some reasons why it's important to call a squirrel removal specialist: 

• In many situations, homeowners will block off the squirrel’s entry point after seeing the mother leave for food. When she returns to find that she can no longer get into the attic the mother squirrel can cause a tremendous amounts of damage. In her attempts to reunite herself with her babies she will rip up shingles and other parts of the roof in a desperate attempt to find her babies. Do not underestimate a mother squirrel.
• Another common mistake is to trap and relocate a mother squirrel only to find out that she has a litter of babies in the attic. Without their mother the babies will surely die an inhumane death. Once deceased in your attic, they will begin to decompose resulting in a rancid odor, flies and even more damage to your property. 

Once our technicians have located and removed the squirrel babies from the attic, they are placed in a weather-proof reunion box and positioned near the entry area. We will then use a one way door to ensure that when the mother squirrel goes searching for her babies, she cannot get back inside. 

The majority of the time, a squirrel in an attic is a female who has made den in  your home. The presence of young squirrels complicates the squirrel removal service. For this reason it's imperative to ensure that your home is free of babies before any trapping can be completed. Once our squirrel removal specialist have confirmed there are no babies in your building, squirrel trapping can become the ideal option to deal with your squirrel infestation.

To trap your squirrel, we will set the trap on a flat and stable surface near the area you are having squirrel problems in. We ensure that the trap isn't near anything that can be destroyed by the trapped squirrel, because once caught it will tear up anything within reaching distance to get out. We will then use a non-meat bait. We do not use meat to attract squirrel, as it will also attract the neighborhood cats. The trap will then be left on your property. 

Installation of a one way door system will ensure that once the squirrel leaves your house at night, it will be unable to reenter your home. 

Once caught, our clients are expected to contact Pest Kings Wildlife & Pest Control. We will then come back to your home to carefully remove and relocate the trapped squirrel. Before our technicians arrive, it's very important to not stick your fingers inside the trap, or even hold it close to your body. You will get attacked. 

There are many intangibles and risks that make do-it-yourself trapping a bad idea for any homeowner. Your best bet is to call the licensed squirrel control professionals at Pest Kings. 

Pest Kings Wildlife & Pest Control's wildlife removal strategy is 100% humane, safe and reliable. Depending on the size, length and severity of your infestation, you may require cleaning of contaminated materials and restoration of destroyed property. Contaminated insulation and drywall can cause serious health risks. It's important to have these materials fully removed professionally because the squirrel waste is commonly infested with diseases that can cause serious illness if accidentally ingested. Once your contamination is cleared, we also offer restoration services. Pest Kings has years of expertise in renovations, restorations and carpentry.
