The Gray Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) in Glen Allen, VA often causes problems when it decides to take up residence inside of your attic. Once in your attic they can be extremely destructive – tearing up and soiling insulation, gnawing on electrical wires and structural materials, and generally making a lot of disruptive noises.
Squirrels are diurnal, meaning they are active twice a day, generally in the morning and early evening. They mate two to three times a year and have litters of 3-5 young per litter.
At Virginia Professional Wildlife Removal Services we are constantly striving to advance our education so that we may serve you better.
The Southern Flying Squirrel (Glaucomys volans) can also be a problem in the attics of Glen Allen, Virginia homeowners for many of the same reasons as the Gray Squirrel.

Description of Glen Allen Squirrel Damage
Glen Allen VA squirrels may occasionally damage forest trees by chewing bark from branches and trunks. Pine squirrels damage Ponderosa pine, jack pine, and paper birch. In the Southeast, fox squirrels damage loblolly and other pines.
These species and others may eat cones and nip twigs to the extent that they interfere with natural reseeding of important forest trees. This is a particular problem in Ponderosa pine forests where pine squirrels may remove 60% to 80% of the cones in poor to fair seed years. In forest seed orchards, such squirrel damage interferes with commercial seed production.
In nut orchards, squirrels can severely curtail production by eating nuts prematurely and by carrying off mature nuts. In New England fruit orchards, pine squirrels may eat ovaries of cherry blossoms and destroy ripe pears. Pine, gray, and fox squirrels may chew bark of various orchard trees.
In residential areas of Glen Allen VA squirrels sometimes travel power-lines and short out transformers. They gnaw on electrical wires, enter buildings, and build nests in attics. Squirrels may damage siding, insulation, or household contents when they take up residence in homes or other buildings.They frequently chew holes through pipelines used in maple syrup production.
Squirrels in Glen Allen VA occasionally damage lawns by burying or searching for and digging up nuts. They will chew bark and clip twigs on ornamental trees or shrubbery planted in yards. Often squirrels take food at feeders intended for birds. Sometimes they chew to enlarge openings of bird houses and then enter to eat nestling songbirds. Flying squirrels are small enough to enter most bird houses and are especially likely to eat nesting birds.
In gardens, squirrels may eat planted seeds, mature fruits, or grains such as corn. (Source: Prevention and Control of Wildlife Damage, 1994)
Squirrel Health Concerns In Glen Allen
Gray squirrels in Glen Allen VA are also subject to a host of parasites and diseases. Botfly larvae can cause enormous cysts on a squirrel before the larva emerges to pupate and metamorphose into a fly. Mange can leave squirrels with patches of raw fur-less skin. Ticks, fleas, lice, and worms also afflict gray squirrels which can contaminate your home. Another peculiar ailment that is found in gray squirrels is squirrel pox or fibromatosis. This disease is caused by a virus and results in multiple large skin tumors which may appear anywhere on the squirrel´s body. Normally, this disease will run its course and the tumors will disappear unless secondary skin infections occur. If the tumors occur around the eyes or mouth, the squirrel may be unable to see or feed and may succumb due to starvation. Squirrel droppings, like pretty much any wildlife dropping, are associated with Leptospirosis and Salmonella. (Source: www.newyorkwild.org)
