Sanitation
If tree squirrels get into your house, they are going to leave a mess behind. We'll clean up the areas where they spent their time, removing droppings and sanitizing the affected areas. This ensures the health and safety of your family.
Insulation Removal & Replacement
Squirrels will often damage insulation during their time in your house, either with their excrement or as they dig into it to use as nesting material. We will remove the damaged insulation and replace it with either traditional or TAP insulation.

Getting rid of an infestation as quickly as possible is important in protecting your home and family.

Squirrel Pressure In Louisville's Tree-Lined Neighborhoods
Louisville is one of the most tree-canopied cities in the region, and that canopy is exactly why gray squirrels are our single most common attic call. Neighborhoods like the Highlands, Crescent Hill, Anchorage and St. Matthews - where mature oaks overhang rooflines - see constant squirrel entry attempts. Kentucky gray squirrels have two breeding seasons, with young in the nest roughly February-April and again July-September, and both windows produce a surge of attic activity as mothers seek den sites.
Squirrel Removal Questions, Answered
Why do squirrels keep chewing back into my attic?
A squirrel's incisors never stop growing, so they gnaw constantly - and once a squirrel has denned in your attic, it will chew through wood, vinyl, and even aluminum to get back to it. That's why our exclusion work uses chew-proof steel materials and is backed by the 10-year guarantee.
What time of year are squirrels in attics worst in Louisville?
Gray squirrels raise two litters a year in Kentucky: late winter (February-April) and late summer (August-September). Those are the peaks for attic calls, because mothers seek warm, dry cavities to nest. If you hear rolling or scampering at dawn and dusk, that timing usually points to squirrels rather than mice or raccoons.

How does your squirrel removal process work?
We follow a three-step process: first we humanely remove the animals using traps that are tech-monitored and physically checked every three hours, then we repair the damage they caused, and finally we permanently close every entry point so they can't get back in.
Is your squirrel removal humane?
Yes. We use humane removal methods every time, and every trap is paired with cellular monitoring technology and physically checked every three hours so no animal is left waiting.
Will the animals come back after squirrel removal?
No - after removal we permanently seal every entry point and potential entry point, and that exclusion work is backed in writing by our 10 year animal-free guarantee. If an animal re-enters through an entry point we closed within 10 years, we make it right.
