Signs You Have a Squirrel Problem
Squirrels are active chewers and climbers, which means they often leave behind obvious signs of their presence. You may need squirrel pest control if you notice:
- Scratching or scurrying noises coming from the attic or walls
- Droppings or urine stains in the attic or insulation
- Chewed wires, wood, or insulation
- Nests made of leaves, paper, or other debris
- Holes or gnawed openings along your roofline, vents, or siding
If you notice signs like these, it’s important to call a professional quickly. Squirrels can cause significant damage in a short time and increase your risk of fire hazards or exposure to diseases.

They are wonderful. We got Aaron for our tech. Not only was he thorough but he also gave us an indication as to what to expect. We needed someone out same day and not only was he accomadating but he was courteous too. Would definitely recommend.

I usually don't write reviews UNLESS the service is exceptional...today I experienced exceptional service with Alamo. What made it so was working with my technician Jay. He is knowledgeable, on-time, and most importantly he is personable.
Alamo should hire 50 more of him or try to clone him. 😊
I will be recommending Alamo to family and friends...I will also tell them to ask for Jay to be their tech.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I tell if it’s squirrels and not rats living in my attic?
Timing is the best clue: squirrels are diurnal, so scratching, scurrying, or rolling-around noises during daylight hours point to squirrels, while similar sounds only after dark usually mean rats or mice. Look for other signs too — chewed wires or wood, leaf-and-twig nests, fecal matter in the insulation, or gnawed holes along the roofline, vents, or siding. If you’re only ever hearing activity at night, you may be dealing with a different pest entirely, so a professional inspection is the surest way to know.
Why do squirrels chew through wood, wires, and vents instead of just nesting quietly?
Squirrels are rodents, and a rodent’s front incisors never stop growing — left unchecked, they’d eventually prevent the animal from eating at all. Gnawing on wood, wiring, and even metal is how squirrels wear those teeth down, which is why an infestation so often comes with chewed rafters, damaged insulation, and stripped wiring. That wiring damage isn’t just cosmetic — chewed electrical lines are a recognized fire hazard, which is one of the biggest reasons a squirrel problem shouldn’t wait.
Are squirrels actually dangerous to have around?
Less than most people assume. The CDC lists squirrels among the small rodents rarely found infected with rabies, and one long-term surveillance study of nearly 22,000 tested squirrels found a positivity rate of just 0.04%, versus roughly 13% for raccoons tested over the same period. The bigger practical risks are the fire hazard from chewed wiring and the mess left by droppings and soiled insulation — reasons enough to have them removed promptly even without a rabies concern.
Is there a best (or worst) time of year to deal with a squirrel problem?
Spring and late summer tend to be the busiest seasons, lining up with the two litters most female squirrels raise each year — young squirrels typically need 10 to 12 weeks before they can leave the nest on their own. Sealing entry points before a whole litter has moved out can trap babies inside, so proper removal times the exclusion work around the litter rather than closing everything up the moment adult activity is noticed.
Once the squirrels are gone, what actually keeps them from coming back?
Removal alone doesn’t fix anything if the entry point is still open. We trap squirrels and also offer a free animal exclusion inspection to identify all of the entry points, and sealing those openings through an animal exclusion service is what keeps squirrels from coming back. During an animal exclusion, we can also clean up droppings and nesting material and sanitize the area for an extra fee. Trimming back tree limbs that overhang the roofline also helps, since squirrels rarely need to touch the ground to get onto a house.
Does homeowners insurance cover squirrel damage?
Generally, no. Squirrels are classified as rodents, and the standard homeowners policy form used industry-wide (ISO HO-3) specifically excludes damage caused by “birds, vermin, rodents, or insects” — insurers treat it as a maintenance issue rather than a sudden, covered event. The one exception is if squirrel damage causes a secondary loss your policy does cover, like a fire from chewed wiring, but the wiring repair itself is still typically out-of-pocket — one more reason to catch a squirrel problem early.
