Risks From Squirrels In The Attic
There are risks that come along with any wildlife.
Some risks come along with any wildlife. Some of the risks of squirrels living in your house or business include but are not limited to:
Squirrel Risks include...
- Damage to your house or business – The biggest risk that comes from squirrels in your home or business is damage from chewing and gnawing. The squirrels entrance is the typical place where damage from gnawing has occurred. The gnawed entrance can be approximately the size of a baseball. A buildup of droppings can also create damage to your home or business .
- Fire Hazard – Squirrels like to chew/gnaw and sometimes the can chew on the wires running through your attic. Consequently gnawing on your wires can lead to a spark and combined with the dryness of the attic the results can be devastating.
- Health Hazard – As with any wildlife species squirrels can carry disease. Squirrels are not trained to go to the bathroom outside like your pet dog. As a result this can lead to a buildup of droppings in your home or business and their droppings can carry bacteria.

Squirrels Nesting Under Solar Panels

Solar guards installed to prevent squirrels.
Do you need to get rid of squirrels from under your solar panels? We have a solution for you!
Solar panels provide a perfect place for squirrels to nest. With the panels providing overhead protection from weather and birds of prey and the open sides for ease of access squirrels with think they hit the lottery.
Squirrels frequently nest under solar panels. They will build their nests with pine straws, leaves, and twigs. Once the juveniles are grown and leave the nest they will often chew on the wires. Unfortunately, exposed wires and the highly flammable nesting materials do not go well together.
We can remove any squirrels that believe your solar panel is their home and protect it against future squirrels by installing high-quality solar panel guards. Check out our solar panel exclusion page to learn more.

Is squirrel removal legal in North Carolina?
Yes. Squirrel removal is legal in North Carolina, but the allowed methods and timing can depend on where the squirrels are, the species, and whether young are present. A professional inspection helps ensure removal and exclusion are done legally and humanely.
How much does squirrel removal cost in North Carolina?
Squirrel removal cost in NC depends on the number of entry points, the level of attic activity, and whether exclusion and repairs are needed. Most projects are priced after an inspection because “trap-only” work and full exclusion/repair work are very different scopes.
Do you remove squirrels humanely?
Yes. Humane squirrel removal focuses on removing the animals safely and preventing re-entry using professional exclusion and sealing. The goal is long-term control, not just short-term trapping.
How do squirrels get into attics in North Carolina homes?
Squirrels typically enter through roof returns, soffit gaps, gable vents, ridge vents, and construction gaps near fascia boards. They can also exploit damaged areas caused by weather, rot, or prior wildlife activity.
What are the signs of squirrels in the attic?
Common signs include daytime scratching or running sounds, activity near rooflines, droppings in the attic, torn insulation, and visible chewing on wood or wiring. You may also see squirrels entering near the roof at dawn or late afternoon.
Will squirrels come back after removal?
They often will if the entry points are not sealed. Long-term squirrel control in NC usually requires identifying how they got in and completing exclusion so new squirrels cannot use the same openings.
Does squirrel removal include sealing entry points and repairs?
Professional squirrel removal should include exclusion planning and sealing primary entry points once the attic is confirmed clear. If damage exists, repairs may be recommended so the structure is restored and vulnerable areas are reinforced.
Can squirrels damage wiring and create a fire risk?
Yes. Squirrels can chew wiring, which can increase the risk of electrical issues and, in rare cases, fire. If you suspect wildlife in the attic, it’s smart to schedule an inspection quickly.
How long does squirrel removal take?
Timing depends on attic access, the number of entry points, and whether young are present. Some situations can be addressed quickly, while others require staged steps: inspection, removal, confirmation, then exclusion and repairs.
Do you handle squirrels in walls, ceilings, or chimneys?
Yes. Squirrels can nest in wall voids, ceilings, chimneys, and attic corners. The right approach starts with locating the access route and activity areas, then removing the squirrels and preventing re-entry.
What should I do if I hear squirrels in my attic right now?
Avoid sealing openings immediately, because you can trap animals inside and worsen damage or odor issues. Schedule a professional inspection first so removal and exclusion are done in the right order.
Do you provide squirrel removal across North Carolina?
Yes. Squirrel removal service is commonly provided across central NC and surrounding areas, depending on your location. The fastest way to confirm coverage is to call and request an inspection.
