Squirrel Control in Toronto
At Quality Affordable Pest Control, we believe in and stand by our commitment to removing problem wildlife from your premises in a humane fashion: this includes squirrel removal throughout the York Region and Durham Region.
There’s no doubt about it, squirrels are very cute characters, but these bushy-tailed rodents are not household pets. They can disrupt your home if they have already discovered a way in. Across Toronto, squirrels have become a problem as their numbers are in the tens of thousands.
What are the Signs of Squirrel Infestation?
Signs of squirrel infestation can vary depending on the specific situation and location, but here are some common signs to look out for:
Noises - Squirrels are active and agile animals, and you may hear scratching, scampering, or chirping sounds coming from your attic, walls, or ceiling. These sounds are often more noticeable during the morning and evening when squirrels are most active.
Gnaw Marks - Squirrels have strong teeth and jaws and may leave gnaw marks on various surfaces, such as wood, plastic, or wires. Look for chewed-up areas on furniture, structural elements, electrical cables, or insulation.
Droppings - Squirrel droppings are typically small, cylindrical, and rounded. They resemble dark-coloured pellets and are usually found near nesting areas or along common paths squirrels use to move around your property.
Nests - Squirrels build nests using twigs, leaves, and other materials. Look for nests in trees, attics, chimneys, or any secluded areas around your property. Nests are usually large, messy, and can be visible from the ground.
Damage to Plants -strong> Squirrels tend to dig up and damage gardens, flower beds, or potted plants in search of food or to bury their stash. Look for disturbed soil, uprooted plants, or partially eaten fruits and vegetables.
Holes and Entry Points - Squirrels require entry points to access your home or building. Look for small holes or chewed openings in walls, roof eaves, vents, or fascia boards. Squirrels can also exploit existing openings, such as window gaps or damaged screens.
Squirrel Sightings - If you frequently spot squirrels on your property, particularly near your home or in unusual areas, it could indicate an infestation. Multiple squirrel sightings, especially during daylight hours, suggest a larger population.
If you notice any of these signs, it's advisable to seek professional squirrel removal services to address the infestation effectively and prevent further damage.
