Squirrel Removal & Attic Exclusion
Scratching in the attic, running in the ceiling, or daytime activity near the roofline often points to squirrels. We remove squirrels, identify the access route, and secure the entry points so your attic stays protected.
Professional Squirrel Removal That Stops Re-Entry
Squirrels are agile climbers that exploit weak points at rooflines, soffits, vents, dormers, and trim transitions. Once they gain access, they can shred insulation, chew wiring, and create heavy activity in attic spaces. The most common reason squirrel problems repeat is that the access point is never properly secured.
TDHP Wildlife Control provides squirrel removal, squirrels in the attic removal, and attic exclusion services throughout Worcester and Middlesex County, Massachusetts. We focus on removal plus prevention—identify the entry, remove the animal, and secure the structure.
Common Signs of Squirrels in the Attic
- Running, scratching, or rolling sounds (often in daytime)
- Chewing noises near rooflines, vents, soffits, or dormers
- Insulation pulled aside or disturbed in attic spaces
- Droppings in attic areas or near access points
- Exterior damage at roof edges, trim, or vent openings
Seasonal note: In colder months squirrels push deeper into warm voids. In spring, attics can become nesting sites.
Why You Shouldn’t Wait
Squirrels don’t “move on” once they find a reliable entry. They return and they widen openings with repeated access.
- Chewed wiring and materials
- Insulation damage and energy loss
- Widened entry points from repeated use
- Noise, debris, and contamination in attic spaces

Squirrel Removal FAQ
How do squirrels get into attics?
Most commonly through roofline gaps, soffits, vents, dormers, fascia corners, and weak transitions where materials meet.
Will squirrels come back after removal?
They can if the entry point isn’t secured. Exclusion and repairs are what prevent re-entry.
Are squirrels active at night?
Squirrels are usually most active during daylight hours. Daytime running and scratching is a common indicator.
