Dealing with Squirrels in the Attic?
In Leesburg, Eastern Gray Squirrels are common intruders that can cause massive amounts of damage in a short time. Squirrels in the attic are notorious for gnawing on wooden supports and electrical wiring, creating a serious fire hazard. Jesse James Critter Getters specializes in a comprehensive squirrel removal process that includes humane trapping and professional squirrel damage repair.
Permanent Exclusion Solutions
Squirrels have a strong homing instinct. Simply removing them isn't enough; you must secure the structure. We identify every roof-line gap, soffit breach, and unsealed vent. We then install heavy-duty hardware cloth and industrial sealants to ensure your attic remains squirrel-free for the long term.
Loudoun County Squirrel Expert FAQ
How do I know if I have squirrels in the attic?
The most common sign is the sound of scurrying or jumping in the ceiling, typically during the early morning or evening. You may also notice chewed holes on the exterior fascia boards, soffits, or around roof vents in your Leesburg home.
Can squirrels cause a fire hazard in my home?
Yes. Squirrels are rodents with teeth that never stop growing, so they chew constantly to keep them sharp. They frequently gnaw on electrical wiring in attics, which can strip the insulation and create a serious fire hazard for the structure.
Why is squirrel damage repair necessary after trapping?
Trapping only removes the animal currently inside. If you do not perform professional squirrel damage repair to seal the entry points with steel mesh or metal flashing, new squirrels will follow the scent trails left behind and move back into the attic.
