The Need for Towson Humane Squirrel Control

Towson humane squirrel control, such as trapping services, are offered by Baltimore County squirrel removal professionals or Baltimore County squirrel control experts (443-417-3137). If you have squirrels living in the attic of your Towson home you already have squirrel damage so it’s important to know how to get squirrels out of the attic before they cause more damage.  Squirrels will chew holes through your roof, soffit, fascia, dormer pockets, and vents to access your attic. Squirrel control should start off with squirrel trapping. Squirrel removal is important to stop the endless damage caused by squirrels. Once the invasive squirrels are trapped and removed then the squirrel damage repair should begin. Baltimore County squirrel damage repair professionals (443-417-3137) will inspect your attic and the exterior of your roof to identify any damage caused by squirrels. In most cases the damage is minimal and there is only one hole that the squirrels chewed through to access the attic. If the squirrels are living in the attic for a long time then there may be two or three holes that the squirrels chewed through. Some Towson homeowners that have had a squirrel problem in the attic for a long time may need to have an attic clean-out and new insulation installed in the attic because squirrels flatten the insulation in the attic by constantly running over the insulation. Squirrels also urinate all over attic insulation which hinders the insulation’s ability to insulate your home.

 

Squirrels Living in the attic in Towson can create a fire hazard by chewing on electrical wiring in the attic. An estimate of 25,000 homes each year burn down because squirrels chew on electrical wires in attics. Squirrels can also create a fire hazard when they build their den inside of the chimney flu. Squirrels will bring leaf litter, twigs, and even trash into the chimney flu to build a den, and when a fire is lit in the fireplace the den material will block the smoke and cause the smoke to back up into the house. In some cases, the den material has caught fire. If you have questions about the fire hazards that squirrels can create in your Towson home visit The Baltimore County Fire Marshall at 700 E.
