Keeping squirrels out of your home isn’t just about avoiding a few chewed wires, it’s about protecting your property, your family’s safety, and your peace of mind. In Minnesota, where squirrels are abundant and clever, prevention is the key to avoiding costly and stressful infestations. Below, we’ll walk through how to spot squirrel activity, why early prevention matters, the professional services we offer
Squirrels, especially gray squirrels, are common throughout Minnesota but specifically the twin cities and the metro area. Squirrels are members of the rodent family and are highly arboreal. They tend to be very highly active in the summer and in the fall where they scavenge for food for the winter.
Tree squirrels generally nest in trees in wooded areas. Since Minnesota has a ton of wooded areas that we keep building into, it is forcing squirrels to look for alternative places to live and therefore housing structures are a great choice. The most common invaded areas are garages and attics. Squirrels reach these areas by chewing holes in the exterior of the structure and typically nest, store food or both. Their activity is usually noisy and heard by anyone in close proximity.
Whether you love them or hate them, the common gray squirrel can be quite a nuisance when they get inside of your home. Tree squirrels love to play in the yard, raid bird feeders and jump from tree to tree. But, squirrels nesting in your attic, walls or chimney is cause for concern. Squirrels can be very sneaky and determined to get inside of a house or business. Getting them out can be much easier with the help of a trained gray squirrel exterminator from Wild Animal Management, Inc.
Squirrels may seem like harmless backyard visitors, but when they find their way into your home, they can leave behind quite a mess. Whether they have nested in your attic, walls, or crawl spaces, their droppings, urine, and nesting materials can pose serious health risks and cause structural damage. At Minnesota Wild Animal Management, we specialize in professional squirrel cleanup and sanitation services for homeowners in South Minneapolis, ensuring your home is safe, clean, and free of contamination.
Squirrels are notorious for chewing through insulation, wiring, and wood to create nests in attics and walls.
