Squirrels in My Houston Attic?

After the babies are Born, there is a quiet period that last for 2 to 3 weeks, after this it sounds like a elephant rolling bowling balls around in your attic, the baby squirrels run and play, they chase each other, they tumble and wrestle all in the name of fun. they are having a wonderful time in your attic. That’s all good, except this is all happening at 3:30 am and your trying to sleep. But through all this, there is good news!!! This only last for the next 3 months. At this time the baby squirrels will be big enough to leave the den(your attic) and live a life of their own in the trees around your home…..Until next year, when the process starts over in your attic again. Female squirrels use the same birthing place year after year.
