Flying Squirrel Removal Services
Noises coming from the attic could indicate a flying squirrel problem. Your home offers easy access to shelter and food for these creatures, who are smaller than ground squirrels and can squeeze through little gaps. Whether you see or think you only hear one, it's likely that a whole group of flying squirrels have infested your home, as they like to travel together. Rather than trying to capture them yourself, contact the professionals at Eliminate 'Em Pest Control for swift removal of flying squirrels from your home.

Do You Need Flying Squirrel Removal?
Although flying squirrels don't actually fly, they can glide between surfaces. Our extermination specialists know how to safely capture flying squirrels and humanely remove them from your home. Once we have eliminated the problem, the next step is to thoroughly clean the area. Flying squirrels may carry diseases and parasites or attract other pests that leave behind contaminated feces and urine. Finally, we secure any openings that flying squirrels could re-enter and wreak more havoc on your home. Our team also assists with:
- Removing exterior entry points, including tree limbs near the house
- Identifying other factors that could be attracting pests, like bird feeders
- Inspecting the chimney for squirrel nests – damaged caps should be replaced
At the first sign that flying squirrels have invaded your home or business, contact the professional exterminators at Eliminate 'Em Pest Control! Our family-owned and operated business guarantees you will be satisfied with our flying squirrel removal services.
Why Should You Contact a Flying Squirrel Removal Professional?
-
Fire Risks Flying squirrels continuously gnaw on electrical wiring inside your walls to sharpen their teeth, presenting a hidden fire hazard.
-
Typhus Risk Southern flying squirrels can carry flying squirrel typhus, a painful rash that is transmittable to humans and pets through bites or scratches.
-
Colony Infestations Because flying squirrels travel and nest in large social groups, a single sighting usually points to a significant attic-wide problem.
-
Attic Contamination Flying squirrels leave behind feces and urine that quickly destroy insulation, emit terrible odors, and attract secondary pests.
-
Gliding Access Capable of gliding between surfaces, these pests easily leap from overhanging tree limbs directly onto your roofline to find entry gaps.
-
Entry-Point Exclusion We safely capture the colony, clean up the biohazards, and seal small structural openings to guarantee they cannot re-enter.
