OUR SQUIRREL TRAPPING PROCESS

Squirrels may seem harmless, but they can cause significant damage to homes and businesses in Milton, making Squirrel Removal and Squirrel Trapping essential for protecting your property. Once inside, squirrels chew through electrical wiring, damage insulation, and gnaw on wooden structures, creating fire hazards and leading to costly repairs. Milton Squirrel Trapping is necessary to protect your home from these destructive pests.

Squirrels also damage roofs, gutters, and siding as they attempt to enter your home. Their droppings and urine can contaminate insulation, creating unsanitary conditions and posing health risks for your family. Professional Milton Squirrel Removal is essential to keep your home safe and clean.

One of the biggest risks associated with squirrels is the potential for electrical fires caused by their chewing on wires. Many house fires, initially labeled as “unknown causes,” are later traced back to rodents like squirrels. Repairing squirrel damage can be costly, involving rewiring, insulation replacement, and roof repairs.

If you suspect squirrels have invaded your home, don’t wait for the damage to worsen. Contact Southern Wildlife Management, LLC for professional Milton Squirrel Trapping, removal, and exclusion services today.

Q) How do squirrels usually get inside attics and homes in Milton?

A) In Milton, squirrels most commonly enter through roofline construction gaps and soffit returns. They can also chew through gable vents, bathroom vents, and utility pipe chases. During trapping, we identify these active and backup entry points so we can recommend exclusion afterward to permanently seal your home.

---

Q) What are the first signs of a squirrel problem in my home?

A) The first signs are often noises — scampering, scratching, or chewing — coming from the attic or walls, especially early in the morning or late evening. You may also notice chewed wood, droppings, or disturbed insulation, all of which suggest squirrel activity.

---

Q) Are squirrels dangerous to wiring or insulation?

A) Yes. Squirrels constantly gnaw to keep their teeth worn down and often chew on electrical wiring, ductwork, and wood fascia. While only a small percentage of fires are caused by this, the bigger issue is the long-term attic damage, insulation contamination, and odor buildup from urine and nesting.

Q) What’s involved in professional squirrel trapping and removal?

A) Southern Wildlife Management handles trapping humanely. We use live cage traps and check them daily for one week. Each visit allows us to remove captured squirrels, rebait, and adjust traps as needed. All animals are released unharmed in a safe, natural environment far enough away that they won’t return.

---

Q) How long does a squirrel trapping job take?

A) Every trapping job runs for one week with five consecutive daily visits. Once all activity has stopped, we provide an exclusion proposal to permanently seal your home and prevent future issues.

---

Q) What time of year are squirrel infestations most common in Milton?

A) Gray squirrels are active year-round, while flying squirrels become more of an issue in colder months when they seek warm attic spaces. Both species can enter attics anytime if access exists through roofline gaps or soffit returns.

---

Q) Can I trap squirrels myself?

A) You can try, but DIY efforts often make the squirrels trap-shy and much harder for professionals to remove later. Licensed wildlife specialists understand squirrel behavior and comply with Georgia regulations, ensuring safe, humane, and lasting results.

---

Q) What’s the best way to prevent squirrels from returning?

A) The only reliable solution is professional squirrel-proofing through exclusion. This involves sealing every active and backup entry point — construction gaps, soffit returns, pipe chases, and gable vents — using durable Critter-Proof materials. When sealed properly, squirrels give up and move on.

---

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

A) Yes, though the approach varies slightly. Flying squirrels live in colonies, so we house and maintain the group during trapping and release them together to preserve their social structure. Both species are removed humanely and excluded permanently.

---

Q) Are certain Milton neighborhoods more prone to squirrel issues?

A) Yes, wooded neighborhoods like White Columns, The Manor, Crabapple, and Providence Oaks tend to see higher squirrel activity due to mature trees and roofline connections. However, squirrels are common across Milton — even in newer developments.

---

Q) What happens if I ignore a squirrel problem?

A) Ignoring a squirrel problem allows the damage to compound. Babies grow up and return to nest, leading to multigenerational infestations. Insulation becomes matted, urine odor intensifies, and chewed wiring can create serious hazards over time.

---

Q) Do ultrasonic devices or sprays actually work for squirrel control?

A) No. They may seem effective briefly because squirrels are cautious around new sounds or smells, but the effect fades fast. We’ve removed nests within inches of active ultrasonic devices — proving they don’t work for real control.

---

Q) How many squirrels could be living in my attic?

A) Typically one family — two to six squirrels — but larger attics can host multiple families if left unaddressed. Early trapping stops population growth and prevents greater damage.

---

Q) After removal, is cleanup or sanitizing necessary?

A) Usually not for gray squirrels. They are not communal latrine animals and leave only scattered droppings. Attic heat naturally sterilizes minor contamination, but if you enter the attic often, a mask is recommended due to insulation dust and airborne particles.

---

Q) Are squirrels more active in wooded parts of Milton?

A) Yes, areas with dense tree cover like White Columns and The Manor have more squirrel movement due to easy roof access. Still, squirrels can invade any Milton home that has unsealed roofline gaps or soffit returns — even those without nearby trees.
