Squirrel Removal in Hillsboro

The Eastern gray squirrel is the most common squirrel to be a pest. The fox squirrel and flying squirrel will also find shelter in your attic, roof, or walls but are less common.

Squirrels will often choose to live in your home based on the environment surrounding it. Your home provides an ideal space to create nests, a safe place to give birth, and protection from predators.

Each squirrel removal project requires a customized approach. We strive to remove animals safely, repair damage, and prevent their return.

Professional Squirrel Trapping

The most common way to get rid of a squirrel is a live trap or a one-way door. In some situations, we will employ a live trap with a one-way day. Squirrels that live in an attic go out often during the day to gather nuts and acorns. A one-way door allows them to leave but not come back in.

Direct capture is used if juvenile or baby squirrels are present. The babies are carefully hand-removed and relocated with their mothers. If the mother is not in sight and the young cannot survive on their own, a wildlife rehabilitation center is contacted to provide help.

Whole House Exclusion for Squirrel Control in Hillsboro, NC

You may need to replace all or part of your insulation if a squirrel lives in your attic. Attic wildlife can cause damage. Insulation can be used by squirrels and mice to build nests. Animals living in your attic can soil insulation by urinating and defecating, making it unsanitary and smelly.

Whole home exclusions are the most effective way to control wildlife. The barrier created by a full-home exclusion prevents animals from entering your home or returning. Exclusions are a safe and long-term solution to keep animals out. We seal all kinds of entry points, such as plumbing stacks and vents. Critter Control also offers warranties for full-home exclusions. (Some geographic restrictions may apply).

Residents of Hillsboro NC can rely on Critter Control of the Triad to remove squirrels from an attic, or anywhere else they become an unwelcome pest. Our wildlife technicians can arrive quickly and will use the most up-to-date and humane methods to remove them and exclude their future re-entry.
