Squirrel Removal & Control Services
Gray squirrels may look harmless, but when they enter your home or attic, they can cause serious damage. Cingo Home provides professional, humane gray squirrel removal and exclusion services to protect your home and prevent future infestations.
About Gray Squirrels
Gray squirrels are medium-sized rodents commonly found throughout wooded areas, suburbs, and urban environments. They are active during the day and are excellent climbers, often using trees, fences, and utility lines to access rooftops.
Gray squirrels are one of the most common wildlife pests found in residential neighborhoods. Their ability to climb, chew, and nest makes attics, roofs, and wall voids ideal hiding places. Once inside, squirrels can damage insulation, wiring, and structural components of your home.
Although gray squirrels play an important role in nature, they become a problem when they enter homes to nest, especially in attics and crawl spaces.
If you're hearing scratching noises during the day or noticing damage around your roofline, you may have a gray squirrel problem that requires professional wildlife control.
Damage Caused by Gray Squirrels
Gray squirrels can cause extensive damage to your home, and they may also carry parasites such as fleas and ticks, increasing the risk of secondary pest problems.

Flying Squirrels
Flying squirrels are smaller than gray squirrels and are primarily nocturnal, meaning they are most active at night. Because of their nighttime behavior, homeowners often notice scratching, scurrying, or movement sounds in the attic after dark.
Although flying squirrels are less visible than gray squirrels, they can be just as destructive when they invade homes.
Flying Squirrel Behavior & Nesting Habits
Flying squirrels are the smallest of the tree squirrels and are excellent climbers. While they feed on similar foods as gray squirrels, including fruits, nuts, and seeds, their nesting and social behaviors differ.
Nocturnal activity (active at night)
Breeding primarily in the fall
Litters ranging from 2-6 young
Shared parenting and communal nesting during winter months
Problems Caused by Flying Squirrels
Flying squirrels cause many of the same problems as gray squirrels, but the main difference is timing. Flying squirrel activity typically occurs at night, which can make infestations harder to detect early.
Chewing on electrical wires (fire hazard)
Damage to insulation, ducts, and wood framing
Contamination from urine, droppings, and nesting materials
Entry points that allow other pests into the home

Professional Flying Squirrel Removal
Because flying squirrels often live in groups and return to the same nesting areas, effective removal requires more than just removing the animals. Proper exclusion and sealing of entry points are critical to prevent reinfestation.
