Most adult female squirrels in Middle Tennessee will bear two litters each year, one in early spring and the second in late summer. If you notice squirrel activity in your homer, call Critter Gitter as soon as possible to limit the number of squirrels that consider your attic their home. If you call in the spring or early summer, we can remove the nuisance squirrel family and block the entry point before the second litter of the year is born. 

​

Gray squirrels usually enter a building by chewing a hole through wood or vinyl siding, and may also gain access through the gable vents. Squirrels will also search for structural gaps along the roofline between the shingles and gutter, which they may expand with more chewing in order to gain access into your building. Squirrels are most active around mid-morning and late afternoon, when they exit their den sites to forage for food. 

​

If you hear noises in your attic or notice chewing or other signs of squirrel problems on your property, call the squirrel removal specialists at Critter Gitter for immediate assistance, Squirrels can damage insulation with droppings and nesting material, and are also known to sometimes chew through wiring. The sooner an animal problem (like squirrels in the attic) is addressed, the less damage is likely to occur,.
