There are more than 60 squirrel species and five types of squirrels in the United States. The different species come in different colors. Distinct body types make it easy to dig, climb or glide through the air.
The size also varies between species ranging from 5 inches to 3 feet. These backyard pests have four front teeth that never wear down because they never stop growing.
Female squirrels give birth to about 2-8 squirrels at a time, multiple times a year. It’s not surprising that the squirrel population quickly goes out of control. When this happens, it’s important to get rid of them quickly.

Most squirrels will naturally sleep in your attic at night because your attic has become their new home.
Once inside, they chew electrical wires, create insulation damage, and contaminate your attic and home with their feces and urine. Squirrels will mate twice a year, which coincides with many areas’ rise in call volume.
Squirrels will mate and have a litter in the fall and the spring. The kit sizes can vary, but they are typically 4-6 per cycle. Female squirrels are pretty protective. They will run off any other squirrels that try to get into the attic with them.
