Austin Squirrel Control Services

Expert Residential & Commercial Squirrel Removal Services in the Greater Austin Area

Squirrels can be a nuisance, and squirrel removal specialists like A-Tex Pest Management can rid your homes of squirrels and prevent additional squirrel problems. Squirrels are known for making scratching and scurrying noises in ceilings and walls during the daytime, typically at dawn, when they are leaving their nests to look for food. You may also find small holes in your siding or gutters where squirrels and gaining entry into your structure. If you hear noises in your attic during the daytime, there is a good chance you have a squirrel infestation. Squirrels are diurnal animals, meaning that they remain active all year around in Austin. Typically, they build their nests in trees. During the winter, they usually prefer nesting in holes of decaying tree branches.

Squirrels will enter Austin homes and buildings for shelter and nesting. They commonly use attics as their den sites and have a couple of litters each year. If squirrel removal is not implemented immediately when the squirrel problem is first identified, the population of squirrels living in or around a building will continue to multiply.

Commonly Asked Questions

What are common signs of a squirrel infestation?

Common signs include hearing scratching noises in the attic, finding squirrel droppings, seeing nests made of leaves or twigs, and noticing damage to your property, such as chewed wires or holes in walls.

Are squirrels dangerous to my home?

Squirrels can cause significant damage by gnawing on electrical wires, insulation, and wood. They can also introduce diseases through their droppings and urine, making it important to address infestations promptly.

What time of year are squirrels most active?

Squirrels are typically most active during the fall and spring. They are busy gathering food in the fall and nesting in the spring, which increases the likelihood of encountering them around your property.

How can I deter squirrels naturally?

Natural deterrents include using strong scents like peppermint or vinegar around entry points, keeping food sources like bird feeders covered or removed, and planting squirrel-resistant plants in your garden.

Squirrels do not hibernate in the traditional sense. Instead, they experience periods of dormancy during winter months but remain active, especially on warmer days, to forage for food.
