OUR DACULA SQUIRREL CONTROL PROCESS

THE DAMAGE SQUIRRELS CAN CAUSE IN DACULA

Squirrels may seem harmless, but they can cause significant damage to homes and businesses in Dacula, making squirrel removal and squirrel trapping essential for preventing costly repairs. Once inside, squirrels will chew through electrical wiring, tear apart insulation, and damage wooden structures, leading to fire hazards and costly fixes.

Squirrels also cause damage by gnawing through roofs, gutters, and siding to gain entry. Their droppings and urine can contaminate insulation, leading to unsanitary conditions that may pose health risks to your family. This makes professional Dacula squirrel removal critical to keeping your home safe and clean.

One of the most serious risks posed by a squirrel infestation is the potential for electrical fires due to squirrels chewing on wires. Many house fires originally classified as “unknown causes” are later determined to be caused by squirrels or other rodents. Repairing squirrel damage can be expensive, often requiring rewiring, insulation replacement, and roof repairs.

If you suspect that squirrels are in your home, don’t wait for the damage to worsen. Contact Southern Wildlife Management, LLC for professional Dacula squirrel trapping and squirrel exclusion services today.

– DACULA SQUIRREL FAQ’s-

Q) How do squirrels usually get into homes and attics?

A) Squirrels often enter through roofline gaps, soffit returns, attic vents, or chewed holes around fascia boards. During trapping, we locate and mark these entry points so homeowners can approve exclusion afterward to prevent future intrusions.

Q) What are the most common signs of a squirrel infestation?

A) Sounds of scratching or running in the attic at dawn or dusk, chewed fascia, droppings near vents, and insulation displacement are all telltale signs that professional squirrel trapping and control is needed.

Q) Can squirrels cause damage to electrical wiring or insulation?

A) Yes. Squirrels constantly chew to keep their teeth short, which can lead to exposed wiring, torn insulation, and damaged ductwork. Trapping removes the immediate problem, and exclusion keeps them out for good.

Q) How does your squirrel trapping process work?

A) We set humane traps directly at active entry and exit points and check them daily for one week. Once trapping is complete, we provide an estimate for exclusion to seal the home. We seldom use one-way valves because we prefer to remove the squirrels entirely—reducing the chance they’ll keep trying to get back in.

Q) How long does squirrel trapping take?

A) Trapping typically runs for one week, with adjustments made as needed. Once all activity stops, we provide a detailed exclusion proposal to permanently seal the entry points.

Q) What time of year are squirrel problems most common?

A) Gray squirrels are active year-round, while flying squirrels become more common in colder months as they seek warm attic spaces. Either species can invade homes anytime during the year.

Q) Can homeowners trap squirrels themselves?

A) Yes, but unsuccessful attempts often make squirrels trap-shy, making professional removal more difficult later. Trapping is only one step—professional exclusion is required to prevent future re-entry.

Q) What’s the best way to keep squirrels from coming back?

A) After trapping, sealing vulnerable areas like soffits, vents, and roofline gaps with Critter-Proof materials provides lasting protection. When the metal is visible, we paint it to blend with the home. Exclusion work is only done after homeowner approval and carries a 5-year non-renewable warranty.

Q) Are flying squirrels removed the same way as gray squirrels?

A) Yes. The trapping process is identical, but the trap placement location and bait type are adjusted for each species. Both are removed humanely, and approved exclusion prevents re-entry of any wildlife species.

Q) I live near Harbins Park and Dacula High School—do wooded areas make squirrel problems worse?

A) Squirrels can scale siding and brick without nearby trees, but overhanging limbs and dense wooded areas around Harbins Park or Old Peachtree Road can make access easier. Trimming branches and approving exclusion work helps prevent future activity.

Q) What happens if squirrels are ignored?

A) Damage increases over time—chewing on fascia, wires, and insulation can create costly repairs. Odors and pheromone trails can also attract new squirrels or rodents to the same entry points.

Q) Do repellents, sound devices, or sprays actually work?

A) No. These methods are temporary at best. Long-term success comes from professional trapping followed by proper exclusion.

Q) How many squirrels might be in my attic?

A) Usually a family group of two to six squirrels, though multiple access points can allow others to enter. Trapping early prevents expansion of the population.

Q) After trapping, is cleanup or sanitation required?

A) Not usually for gray squirrels, since they don’t use communal latrines and attic heat dries small droppings. For flying squirrels or raccoons, we can quote sanitation if a latrine area is found.

Q) Why choose a local wildlife control company for squirrel trapping in Dacula?

A) Our team understands Dacula homes and Gwinnett County construction—from Apalachee Farms to Hamilton Mill—allowing us to target common entry points, use the most effective trap placements, and provide reliable exclusion backed by a 5-year warranty.
