How the Squirrel Removal Process Works in Stanton

When you contact Varmint Evictors, Inc. about squirrels or other nuisance wildlife in your home, our process starts with a thorough inspection of your property. We closely check likely entry points, including roof edges, soffit gaps, and chimney openings, paying attention to features specific to homes in Stanton and across Montcalm County. We use our knowledge of local housing and building styles to find cracks or gaps where squirrels commonly enter, especially in older homes.

During the inspection, we look for nests, droppings, and food caches to determine the extent of the problem and recommend a removal approach. We use humane methods that meet Michigan and local requirements, never relying on poisons or chemicals. After removals, we recommend appropriate exclusion solutions, such as Ridge-Guard, to seal up access points and help keep wildlife out. This step-by-step process allows you to regain control of your property and reduces the chances of recurring squirrel activity, especially before winter shelter-seeking increases in West Michigan.

Steps to Take If You Have Squirrels in Your Attic

When you notice a squirrel in your attic, begin by assessing signs of animal activity and disturbance. Your best course of action depends on whether the squirrels have established a nest or are just passing through. If you suspect they have young, prompt action keeps them from multiplying.

Before taking any steps, first understand why squirrels entered your property. In some cases, removing food sources or closing up small openings can discourage further visits. Squirrel removal should always follow a logical plan that prioritizes safety and compliance with Michigan rules.

We recommend sealing vents and closing structural gaps common in Stanton’s older homes to prevent future wildlife issues. In rural Montcalm County, trimming back overhanging limbs blocks easy roof access. Squirrel activity usually increases in late fall as animals seek warm shelter from Michigan’s cold winters—a good time to schedule seasonal attic checks and maintain your home’s security.

How to Prevent Squirrel Problems in Stanton Homes

Regular inspections are the first line of defense against future squirrel problems. Seal any opening larger than a quarter-inch around your soffits, attic vents, or roof intersections. Keep tree branches trimmed at least six feet from your home—limbs closer than that give squirrels easy access to roofs. If your house was built before the mid-1980s, pay special attention to soffit vents or eaves, as these often have gaps squirrels can exploit.

Keep bird feeders away from your house and use sturdy, metal trash cans with tight-fitting lids to cut down on attractants. If your home is close to Stanton’s parks, fields, or wooded areas, check attics for signs of animal entry every few months—especially before winter. A local professional like Varmint Evictors, Inc. can help you select and install lasting exclusion products tailored to Stanton housing and climate. These preventive steps protect your investment and help maintain a safe, peaceful home.

Identifying Signs of Squirrels in Your Attic

Watch for the following signs that may indicate squirrels have moved into your attic:

  • Scratching sounds
  • Nesting materials in your attic
  • Droppings in your attic
  • Gnawed or chewed-through electrical wiring
  • Gnawed or chewed-through wood
  • Holes in your roof
  • Nesting in attic access

If you spot one or more of these issues, address it right away. Squirrels can remain hidden for long periods and cause damage before you notice. The sooner you act to remove them, the less likely they will multiply and make repairs more difficult.
