Orlando Squirrel and Wildlife Control
| Although I wrote everything I know about squirrel issues for this website, oftentimes a problem with squirrels in the attic is
beyond the scope of the do-it-yourself homeowner to solve. There are professional companies that handle problems with wildlife, and these companies have access to tools, techniques,
and experience that help them do a far better job at wildlife removal than a non-experienced homeowner could. And in many cases, they possess licensing that allows them to do certain
types of work legally, that non-licensed homeowners are not allowed to do. For the welfare of your situation, and the squirrels, in some cases it's best to hire a pro.
There are good companies and bad companies out there. I do not know many of them, but from time to time I talk to such companies, get to know them, and feel confident recommending
their services. We at squirel-attic.com therefore recommend a company called Cassan Wildlife FL, which services Orlando, Florida. If you have a squirrel problem,
or any other conflict with a wild animal, and live in Orlando, I am confident that this company, run by a nice man named Benjamin, is the one to call. | |

they said this - We service the greater Orlando Florida

Apopka, Conway, Longwood, Maitland, Lake Mary, Oviedo,
Doctor Phillips, Sanford, Kissimmee, and more.
For more information, visit the www.cassanwildlife.com website. Cassan Wildlife FL operates 24/7, so

Benjamin,
I thought I had squirrels on my roof until the bead board vinyl ceiling over my patio had an open space this week. I've heard chatter and scratching since Christmas, but thought the squirrels were just racing around. I turned on the recessed lights tonight and a raccoon peaked down to see me through the glass door.
I immediately contacted a "Critter" company and was informed they use lethal capture. I will NOT be using them. I called a home inspector and he is coming by tomorrow to check for an entrance location. I will contact the animal control officer in the morning who has trapped and released several raccoons in the yard. I am extremely concerned about damage to my home and removing the animals safely. After reading your article I assumed it was a mother with pups, however this is not their season to deliver is it?
Any advise is welcome, and we are interested in hiring you as our Orlando
squirrel control company.
thank you.
Terri
Hello Benjamin,
Thank you for having a web site regarding squirrel's in the attic. We enjoy squirrels and feed them along with the birds.
Yesterday I learned that a squirrel was in our attic. We discovered that it chewed it's way in through a roof vent. It seems to be trapped in the attic. It has been trying to work it's way out through the mesh/screening vent under the gutter.
We have left some nuts near the attic opening in our garage. We left a tall latter under the attic opening and left the garage side door open. The squirrel found it's way to this area, ate a few peanuts, but returned to the mesh/screen vent.
Today, I asked my husband to open up the screening on the vent that the squirrel was trying to get out from. He also repaired the area that the squirrel originally chewed to enter into the attic. My husband believes that it was too difficult for the squirrel to exit in the same way it had entered.
Our hopes is that the squirrel will exit and after not hearing it for a day or two, we can repair the screen vent area. If the squirrel does not leave, we will learn that it is no longer concerned about being trapped and plans to stay. Our next step is, is to rent a live animal trap.
We do believe that most likely, the squirrel is an expecting mother searching for a place to soon give birth. After reading your web site, we realize that we only have a short amount of time before she will have her babies.
Please e-mail me your advice, opinion, and recommendation.
Thank you,
Sincerely, Renee
When is the best time (i.e., what time of year) to catch and relocate squirrels?
I trapped and relocated 3 squirrels last summer (after they figured out how to get the food out of the bird feeder). We now have 3 new squirrels sitting on our deck eying the bird feeder, trying to figure out how to get to it. It is only a matter of time before they are up on the feeder. I want to trap them (with my very own "Have a Heart" trap the I got for Christmas) and relocate them.
But I think right now is not a good time. They have their stash of food for the winter, and if I move them now, what will they have to eat? If I wait until spring, and they have babies, what will happen to the babies? Do I need to wait until summer?
I just want to relocate them, not harm them. What do you in Orlando and your colleagues think?
Thanks.

Please be kind to squirrels! They are intelligent animals, and believe it or not, they definitely have emotions! |
