As winter approaches, the enchanting dance of wildlife becomes more apparent, and sometimes, unexpected visitors find their way into our homes. Flying squirrels, with their agile gliding abilities, may seek shelter indoors to escape the chill. At Wildlife Control Services LLC, we understand the nuances of dealing with these adorable yet troublesome guests. In this article, we'll provide insights into capturing and removing flying squirrels, ensuring a peaceful coexistence between your home and these elusive creatures.

Understanding Flying Squirrels:

Flying squirrels, known for their large eyes and gliding membranes, are active during the night. While they're fascinating to observe in their natural habitat, their presence inside homes can lead to potential issues, including noise disturbances, gnawing on structures, and leaving behind droppings.

Signs of Flying Squirrel Activity:

1. Nighttime Noises: If you hear rustling or scratching sounds in the attic or walls during the night, flying squirrels might be the culprits.

2. Visible Droppings: Small, pellet-like droppings near entry points or in the attic are indicative of their presence.

3. Gnawing Marks: Flying squirrels may leave distinctive gnaw marks on wood, wires, or insulation.

Capturing and Removal Strategies:

Capturing flying squirrels requires a delicate approach. Here are effective strategies:

1. Live Traps: Humane live traps are strategically placed in areas of activity, allowing the squirrel to enter but not exit. Our expert team uses specially designed traps to ensure the safety of the animal.

2. Sealing Entry Points: Once captured, it's crucial to identify and seal entry points to prevent further intrusions. Flying squirrels are remarkably agile, so a thorough inspection is necessary to identify all potential access points.

3. Professional Expertise: Dealing with flying squirrels may require professional expertise to ensure a safe and ethical removal process. At Wildlife Control Services LLC, our team, led by owner Rich Daniotti, has over 30 years of experience in humane wildlife management.
