Mating And Gestation
Squirrels will start to breed around a year old and mate around mid-December or early January. Some squirrels will also breed again around June, but this is not as common. A female squirrel will find a safe, warm, and quiet place to have her litter.
Squirrels typically have a litter of three. The babies stay in the nest until they are 10 to 12 weeks old. Then the mother will teach them to get in and out of the house and to forage for food. This is when it will typically be the noisiest since more squirrels are moving around and chewing through the wood. A rodent’s teeth grows constantly, just like our fingernails. Therefore, squirrels have to chew constantly to keep their teeth filed down.
Chewing Everything They Can Find!
If they do not chew and their teeth get too long then they will not be able to eat properly. This is a huge concern because squirrels can easily access wiring in attics. to. Squirrels may also chew into air vents where they could potentially get stuck and die. They may also fall through a hole and not be able to find their way out.
Our company offers a dead animal and deodorization removal service if you think an animal has died in your walls. If you hear scratching or chewing in a certain area for a long period, the squirrel is very likely stuck. Once they are stuck they can die within a day or two due to dehydration.
Dead Animal Removal And Deodorization
A noisy animal is much easier to find, so call us as soon as possible. Once we locate the origin of the smell, we will drill small holes in the bottom of the wall. We then use a boroscope to locate the animal. If we find the squirrel we will remove it and use a deodorizer to get rid of the smell.
There is no guarantee for this service. If you have rats or other animals in your home they may remove the dead animal to eat it. It also could be in a location that we are unable to get to.
