If you have squirrels in the attic, it’s important to have them removed as soon as possible. Squirrels in the attic can cause an array of issues, and these problems only get worse the longer they live there. The sooner you can get them out the better. Animal Remover can take care of your squirrel problem efficiently and humanely. Today we outline what the problems squirrels can gradually cause living in your attic.
Property Damage
This will probably be one of the first things you notice when you have squirrels in the attic. Squirrels love to gnaw and chew on things. They’ll chew on the wood in your attic and tear up insulation. They also need a way in, so they may chew through the shingles and roof in several areas. They won’t stop there either. If you have outdoor furniture, they may chew through that when they leave for the day. They’ll also help themselves to the food growing in your garden. They see everything in their vicinity as their home.

Worst of all, as squirrels continue to defecate and urinate in your attic, they’ll start to cause water damage. This can cause the need to replace the wood and insulation that has been affected. If you take care of squirrels in the attic quickly, then you can prevent the need to pay for these repairs and replacements.
Health Issues
Squirrels may be cute, but they’re still wild animals. They carry a host of parasites and diseases. This includes fleas and ticks, so your furry friends will be especially susceptible to infestation. They also aren’t afraid to bite you if you stick your hand in the wrong place. In addition, their droppings and urine can build up, which isn’t good to breathe in or touch on accident. Also, if you have dead squirrels in the attic, you don’t want a rotting body just sitting somewhere in your walls.
