A few squirrels darting around your yard may seem cute and harmless, but when they start multiplying and making themselves at home in your home, they can create a surprising amount of trouble. Squirrels will raid your bird feeders, chew through attic beams, gnaw on wiring, and uproot your garden. That’s why professional squirrel control is essential — to protect your property, maintain your peace of mind, and prevent costly damage down the road.
If you’re tired of scurrying noises, half-eaten veggies in the garden, and chewed-up insulation, the experienced team at Lookout can help. We offer squirrel control services in Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, and Kentucky. Call us today for a free estimate!

Why Is Squirrel Exclusion So Important?
Squirrel exclusion is the process of sealing entry points and reinforcing vulnerable areas of your home to prevent these agile climbers from getting inside. Common exclusion measures include installing metal flashing around roof edges, trimming back tree branches to reduce access, and fitting heavy-duty screens over vents and chimneys.
This proactive step is essential. Without proper exclusion, squirrels can continue causing costly damage and disrupting your daily life.

Signs You May Have a Squirrel Problem
Unlike many rodents, squirrels are active during the day, making it easier to spot their signs — if you know what to look for:
- Indoor Scratching and Scurrying: Hearing scampering or scratching in attics, walls, or chimneys can indicate squirrels are settling in.
- Chewed Entry Points and Wiring: Look for holes around roof edges, vents, or soffits and gnaw marks on wooden beams. Damage to electrical wiring can also happen – and can be very dangerous.
- Torn Insulation and Debris in Attics: Nesting materials, shredded insulation, and droppings found in dark corners hint that squirrels have claimed your attic as their own.
- Garden and Bird Feeder Chaos: Half-eaten produce, disturbed flowerbeds, and emptied bird feeders are common signs that squirrels are foraging on your property.
- Gnawed Outdoor Structures: Squirrels may chew on fences, decking, or outdoor furniture. Like other rodents, their teeth grow continuously, so they gnaw things to compensate.
Are Squirrels Dangerous?
In most cases, squirrels are more of a nuisance than a serious threat. However, under certain circumstances, they can pose a risk:
- If They Feel Cornered or Threatened: Don’t try to capture a squirrel with your hands or back it into a corner. A frightened squirrel may bite or scratch if it feels trapped.
- If They Chew Electrical Wiring: Exposed wires increase the risk of short circuits and electrical fires.
- If They Carry Parasites or Diseases: While not as notorious as some other rodents, squirrels can still carry fleas, ticks, and certain pathogens.
- If They Damage Structural Integrity: Persistent chewing and nesting in attics can weaken support beams, affecting your home’s stability and safety.
