Why Do Squirrels Choose To Invade Attics?
Grey Squirrels give birth to babies twice a year. This happens once in the spring and once in the fall. During mating season, attics are among one of their favorite places to build nests. This is due to the warmth and darkness that they offer. This makes it an ideal place for the squirrels give birth and raise their babies. A squirrel can give birth to up to six babies in each litter. The number of Grey squirrels in the attic can accumulate rather quickly. Grey squirrels will enter an attic by chewing holes from the outside through soffits, gutters, trim, construction gaps or any other weak areas that allow them to have easy access inside.
Where You May See Squirrels Around Your Home
You may see squirrels around numerous areas of your home. Just because you’ve only seen them on the exterior, doesn’t mean they aren’t either already in your home or working on finding a way in. The most common place we hear customers say they see squirrels in on their roof – And no…They’re not sunbathing. Nine times out of ten, it is because they are lingering around the entrance point they have found. Secondly, you may notice squirrels in or around your gutters. It is important to note that squirrels use gutters as highway systems to maneuver around you home. They do so to find construction gaps along your roof line, which allow for easy access. Third, you may notice squirrels lingering around your yard. Fruitful trees or feeders can attract squirrels to your yard, and they will eventually find their way into your home.
