Our Pest Control Process for Removing Squirrels
Squirrels might look harmless, but when they find their way into your attic, walls, or crawl spaces, they can quickly become a serious nuisance. At Nest Pest Control, we specialize in the safe and humane removal of tree squirrels, ground squirrels, and flying squirrels throughout the National Capital Region.
Our process starts with a complete inspection of your property to determine where squirrels are entering and nesting. We locate access points, assess damage, and identify any attractants like nearby trees or food sources. Once we have a plan, our team uses humane trapping and eviction methods to remove squirrels without harming them. After removal, we perform exclusion work such as sealing gaps, repairing entry holes, and installing barriers to prevent re-entry.
Squirrels are known for their agility and persistence, which is why our approach includes both removal and prevention. Whether they’re gnawing on wood, chewing through wires, or nesting in insulation, our goal is to eliminate the problem and stop it from recurring.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Nest Pest Control safely and humanely remove tree squirrels, ground squirrels, and flying squirrels?
We use humane traps, one-way doors, and live-capture techniques designed to safely remove all types of squirrels from your home or property. Our team ensures no harm comes to the animals while also protecting your space from further damage.
What are the signs that I have a squirrel infestation on my property?
Common signs include scratching noises in the attic or walls, chewed wires or insulation, visible entry holes near the roofline, and sightings of squirrels entering your home. You may also notice droppings or nesting materials.
Can squirrels cause damage to my home, attic, or yard?
Yes, squirrels can chew through wood, drywall, and electrical wiring, leading to fire hazards and costly repairs. In the yard, they can dig up gardens and damage landscaping as they search for food or create burrows.
Does Nest Pest Control offer exclusion methods to prevent squirrels from returning?
Absolutely. After removing the squirrels, we seal all entry points, install animal-proof mesh, and reinforce vulnerable areas to prevent future intrusions. We also offer guidance on how to keep your property less inviting to wildlife.
How can I keep tree squirrels, ground squirrels, and flying squirrels away from my property?
Trim tree branches away from your roof, secure garbage bins, and avoid leaving pet food or bird seed outside. Keeping attics and crawl spaces well-maintained and sealed will also help prevent squirrel entry. For long-term protection, professional exclusion is recommended.
