Cohoes wildlife control tip of the month:
How do you know if you have a squirrel in your attic?
Squirrels are actually everywhere. They are happy to live in the woods and in the suburbs. The problem
is that, oftentimes they also want to live in places where humans are. This is because they are good climbers,
the attic is just one of the most accessible place for them. There are few signs that your attic has been invaded
by squirrels and there are some things that you can do to know that they are there and no other rodents or wildlife
animals. More so, they can bring damage to your home. They can also bring parasites and various diseases that may be
transmitted to humans. Knowing the Cohoes animal control problem and having a solution to it must be done right away to prevent a more serious
problem.
1) By the sound they make
The squirrels are active at daytime and they sleep at night time. A lot of Cohoes pest control homeowners say that they can hear the sounds in
the early morning at sunset. The animals scamper and they can hear them coming to and from the attic, since they are quite
big, the sounds are quite louder than the rats.
2) Foul odor
There will come a time that the smell of the urine will be noticeable and it may start to spread out through the house. If
the Cohoes wildlife removal odor is too strong that may mean that there is a dead squirrel in the attic, it may be the babies.
3) The traces
For you to trace if there are squirrels in the attic, you can place a piece of cardboard with flour on the floor. Make sure
that it is placed nearby the entry and exit point of the attic. When they run to and from it, their tracks will mark in the flour.
4) Nest
The squirrels are big and is also messy. They usually get different loose Cohoes animal trapping materials to construct their dens. Some of the materials may
be twigs, leaves, vines, moss, barks of the trees, papers, wood or whatever is available for them to use.
5) Droppings
In terms of droppings, homeowners will find it hard to determine if the droppings came from the squirrels or from another animal who
have invaded their privacy as well. You can call a Cohoes exterminator pest control company to help you identify who owns the droppings. Their feces are
oblong in shape and they are quite round on both ends. The fresh ones are still dark brown in color, while the older ones are a little
bit darker.
