Squirrels that chew multiple ventilation caps like this home in Willow Beach can cause headaches to homeowners. Generally homes with squirrel problems already have it bad enough with squirrels running around in the attic and chewing away at anything they desire. These things include your roof frames, drywall, insulation and electrical wiring. Finally, the chewing of vents on the roof usually lead to leaking on rainy or snowy days. In particular, leaving squirrels in your property is a bad idea which will cost you more in a long run.

Removal
Our technician who was on site did an inspection of the roof and figured out squirrels had damaged the home. Squirrels had been going in and out for about a year through chewed ventilation caps on the roof. Furthermore, what was interesting about this job was that a raccoon was also living in the attic.
We asked a few procedural questions and gathered evidence found on the roof. The technicians then determined that a raccoon had infiltrated the squirrel den and was using them as a source of food. Finally, we prepared an eviction one-way door designed for both raccoons and squirrels.
