I had an issue with rats and in the end I had to get professional help.  |
We use a pest control company for spraying our yard for mosquitoes, and their website listed that they performed squirrel removal services, so I called them. The man I spoke with said they no longer have that service, but he would tell me what they would do and he told me they used the one-way extruder cage like the one I posted a picture of. He also said to keep using that spray that I have, and when the squirrels are out, seal up that hole with some metal.
Yesterday morning, I went up into the attic and sprayed the repellant all around pretty heavily, in fact, the smell kind of wafted into the living space and my wife opened up some windows and lit some scented candles and it was all good. When I got home from work last night, the smell was actually gone.
Today, so far, I haven't heard any activity from up there.
We have woods behind our house, and surprisingly, there are not many squirrels around here at all. The two that have been in the attic are usually out in a hickory tree in our backyard. I was just outside with our Yorkie, and I saw one squirrel at the edge of the woods. I find it strange that even with the woods all around us here, I can count the number of squirrels in my general area on one hand. Thanks for the tips, guys. I truly appreciate it.
