Heard dryer sheets worked too at least for travel trailers? Any truth in this ?
1). Trap the mess out of them and kill them. Use a mix of live havaheart traps and rat snap traps. Do not release them...anywhere. Use a variety of baits in your traps seeds, peanut butter etc. You can trap outside as well.
2) remove all birds feeders if you have any na dother food sources that may attract them to your house.
3) cut down tree limbs that overhang your house or that touch your home.
4) Seal up all holes and entrance locations...watch for builders gap especially in corners just above and behind your gutters but under the shingles. Use metal screens with screws.
5) Inspect the attic throughly looking for nests and clean them up- vacuum.
6) Do not use poison as the animal or animals can die in your walls and then you have a bigger problem that some scampering at night
7) identify your species, squirrel, rat, or flying squirrel.
PM me and I can give you more help info needed.
There are others on ODT who do this work for a living and can give you good advice.

Dis work every time.
Thats rat seal team six you see in that pic....they are going to have to get creative to take me out.
I'm going to go back tomorrow to see how many more I pull.
My record is 42 from a single location. It's a drugstore. One of the two big chains. Right in the heart of Gwinnett. If I gave the location I bet people would have their scripts filled elsewhere and definitely avoid the candy aisle.
All good info. I'd say 9 times out of 10 we are inviting them in as homeowners. its usually bird feeders, limbs on the house, and feeding your dogs in the basement, garage, or worse, dumping their food in a bucket outside. You make it easy for the critters to flourish all summer long then it gets cold and they need a warm place to stay near the food source.
goot bow practice if I can nail a chipmunk at 20 yards..just saying...Squirrels are a bonus
What city are you in? I have a trap I can loan you. I had one last July. I waited till he left, I patched the hole. Next morning...he had already chewed his way back in.
So I got the trap. Works like a charm. Catch and released at the park

Had a family move into the attic my my prior house. Hired someone to trap them. We were to call when the traps had a squirrel. We were going on vacation and the guy said he would pick up the traps and put them back when returned. He never picked them up.
Came back to a squirrel in every trap including a little baby. All were frozen solid.
From that point on squirrels didn't even run across the roof.
