Squirrels are charismatic creatures that can bring joy and entertainment as they frolic in our backyards and parks. However, when these furry critters start invading our homes or wreaking havoc in our gardens, they can quickly become a nuisance. Squirrel control becomes particularly challenging as their behavior and habits change with the seasons. In this article, we will explore the unique challenges posed by squirrels at each time of year and discuss effective strategies to keep them at bay.

They may choose to build nests in attics, crawl spaces, or chimneys to give birth and raise their young.

Trim tree branches that hang near your roof, as squirrels can use them as bridges to access your home.
