Local squirrel removal for Gurley homes. We respond fast, identify entry points, remove the animals, seal the work, and clean up. Forty years working Gurley and the surrounding Madison County area.
Squirrels chew wiring, soffits, and structural wood. They squeeze through openings as small as 1.5 inches. We remove every animal first, then seal with hardware cloth and metal flashing — never plastic or wood, which squirrels chew right through.
Bats and squirrels in older Gurley attics, raccoons exploring crawlspaces and outbuildings, and seasonal snake encounters along the Flint River.
