Are squirrels causing you trouble?
Squirrels are not welcome in the house, and if you let them nest for too long, they will damage everything. Their introduction dates back to the Victorian era. Since then, they have demonstrated how invasive they can be from a few hundred to millions of squirrels. In addition, their front teeth never stop growing, so they will chew objects in order to reduce the size of their front teeth. This often includes electrical wires. This can cause fires causing you to lose your valuables and potentially your property. If you are experiencing a squirrel infestation, don’t delay; instead, call Hale Barns Squirrel Pest Control.
Grey squirrels are known for their ability to gain entry through the roof of your home but can just as easily use open spots readily available to them. Once they enter the home or office, they can cause a variety of issues. For example, they can cause structures to collapse because they get weak from squirrels gnawing on them; they can even chew into a range of cables that can cause fire hazards resulting in tremendous damage to property. Before this happens in your home, speak to Hale Barns Squirrel Trapping for help with Squirrel Control.
Squirrels usually nest in the forks of trees or ranches in cracks or crevices of rocks. Indoors, they will create their dreys in any roof spaces, chimneys, or outbuildings. However, they will use any unused corner with the slightest disturbance.

A few important points surrounding squirrels.
The grey squirrel is a small, bushy-tailed rodent found in North America. They can be identified by their soft, dense fur, which is typically a uniform grizzled grey colour, although they can also have black fur. In addition, they have characteristic large ears and sharp teeth. Grey squirrels are sexually dimorphic, with males being considerably larger than females. The tail of the grey squirrel is typically around 20 cm long.
Squirrels are omnivorous and typically eat a variety of nuts, seeds, fruits, and insects. They also cache food items, meaning they store food for future use. This can include burying food in the ground or hiding it in trees.
Typically, grey squirrels breed twice per year, typically in February and May. Gestation lasts around 44 days, and grey squirrels give birth to 2-5 young. The young are born blind and hairless and weigh about 10 grams. They are weaned at approximately eight weeks old and reach sexual maturity at around nine months old. Squirrels can spread a variety of diseases, including tularemia, meningitis, and salmonella. They can spread these diseases and can also contaminate food with their saliva, urine, and faeces.
Squirrels communicate through a variety of means, including vocalizations, posturing, and scent marking. They use vocalizations to warn other squirrels of danger, commemorate milestones such as the birth of a baby squirrel, and express other emotions such as happiness or frustration. Squirrels use posturing to show dominance or submission and to indicate whether they are scared or aggressive. Finally, they use scent marking to identify territory and to communicate with other squirrels over long distances.
Squirrels can be easily exterminated if you make sure you choose the right company. DIY products may seem tempting, but they often don’t work and can actually end up making the problem worse. Instead, it’s important to find a company with experience in dealing with squirrel infestations, and that has the right equipment and tools at its disposal.

How Weather Affects Squirrels In Hale Barns
Seasonal changes often push squirrels closer to homes. Cold weather encourages nesting in lofts or attics for warmth, while spring and summer increase activity as they forage and breed.
