Squirrels may seem charming, but their presence in your home can lead to extensive damage. These animals will often use insulation to build nests, stash away nuts and seeds, and can even introduce fleas or spread diseases. Flying squirrels and grey squirrels are particularly drawn to attics and crawl spaces.
For over a decade, the owner of Top Flight Wildlife has been the trusted choice for safe and humane squirrel removal across the greater Knoxville area. Our licensed and insured experts are equipped to address all types of squirrel issues, ensuring your home is protected.
Signs of Squirrel Infestation
One of the clearest signs that squirrels have settled in your home is you see them frequently on your rooftop or you may find that they have chewed a hole in the soffit or siding, creating an entry point.
Other telltale signs of a squirrel infestation include:
- Scratching and Gnawing Noises
- Damage to Soffits
- Nests in Insulation
- Chewed Wires or Damaged Insulation
- Tracks or Smudges
How Top Flight Removes Squirrels
Top Flight Wildlife experts create a customized plan to safely remove squirrels and secure your home against future invasions.
Attempting to remove squirrels on your own is risky—squirrels can carry diseases and parasites, and if cornered, may bite or scratch. Their nests are often hidden in hard-to-reach places, and separating babies from their mother can cause additional damage. Sealing entry points without ensuring all squirrels are gone can lead to costly chewing.
Professional Squirrel Removal
Our comprehensive squirrel removal process includes:
- Detailed Property Inspection: Our skilled team conducts a thorough inspection to identify entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of the infestation. This helps us develop a customized removal plan tailored to your specific needs.
- Customized Removal Strategy: We create a personalized strategy that includes humane trapping and prevention techniques. We aim to safely capture and remove the squirrels while preventing re-entry.
- Safe and Humane Removal: We use humane traps to capture squirrels without harming them. Once captured, we follow all state and federal regulations in the relocation of any animal.
Prevention of Future Squirrel Infestation
To prevent future infestations, we identify and seal potential entry points around your home, such as gaps in the roof, vents, etc. We also provide advice on making your property less attractive to squirrels.
Cleanup & Repair
Along with preventative measures, damage repair and cleanup are also included in our services. The severity of the problem and the location in the home will determine the exact nature of everything involved. Our technician will go over that on-site at the time of the inspection.
