๐ Call 502-660-8150What Affects the Price?
Inspection Fee
The initial visit to identify entry points, species, and damage. Often credited toward the full job cost.
Trapping & Removal
Costs vary based on the number of squirrels and the difficulty of trap placement (e.g., steep roofs).
Repairs & Exclusion
Sealing entry holes is critical. Costs depend on the number of holes and materials needed (steel flashing, mesh).
Cleanup
Removing droppings and nesting material. Heavy contamination may require insulation replacement.
Accessibility
Multi-story homes or hard-to-reach rooflines may require special equipment, increasing labor costs.
Emergency Service
After-hours or weekend calls for urgent situations (like a squirrel in the living room) typically carry a premium.
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Ignoring a squirrel problem is the most expensive option. Squirrels are rodents that must chew to keep their teeth sharp.
- ๐ฅ Fire Hazard: Squirrels chew electrical wiring, causing short circuits and house fires.
- ๐ง Water Damage: Chewed holes in the roof allow rain to rot wood and damage ceilings.
- ๐ Energy Loss: They trample and soil insulation, drastically reducing its R-value and raising energy bills.
