Squirrels – fussy tailed rats ready to invade your home  

/in /by

 

It starts with a clatter in the attic and then it sounds like there is a cat doing cart wheels, yes these are the sounds of a squirrel invasion. At least these rodents are active during the day and quiet in the night, unlike rats. With temperatures dropping in the lower mainland, the squirrels will try to take shelter in your warm attic, bringing with them their bounty of nuts. These guys are capable of chewing wooden siding, soffits, vents and cedar shingles, and their end game is to make a nest for kits in the spring. Squirrel are extremely common here, as we all know, but the reality is that every month is actually squirrel season here. These over sized rats can do a lot of damage in a short period of time with their formidable teeth, as they like to make their entry holes as large as possible and they need to keep they teeth short. If you attempting to blocking off any squirrel entrance holes, keep in mind that a squirrel trapped inside a house will get out – sometimes right through drywall into your house.
