Appearance - Squirrels are known for their large bushy tails and mostly gray coloring, but are not always just gray in color. Squirrels range from brown to gray as well as black and red depending on where you are geographically located in the United States. Adult squirrels are roughly ten inches to a foot long with the tail included in the measurement.
Behavior - Squirrels tend to enjoy roaming streets, sidewalks, and property as well as hanging in trees in the area. These are normal behaviors, but sometimes squirrels decide that they’d much rather live inside your house instead of remain outside where they belong. Signs of an infestation may be pieces of insulation or drywall missing from your attic which could be a sign of a squirrel nesting or beginning to nest. You may also see squirrel droppings or smell urine. They may chew electrical wiring. Outside, squirrels will dig up bulbs, chew house siding, and dig holes in the lawn to collect food.
Due to squirrels being more elusive when they are nesting, you will probably never find a squirrel that has made it to your main living quarters. It will tend to stay where it is quiet and safe such as a garage or attic.
Squirrels tend to enter houses that have trees close to windows leading to attics. If you live near trees where a squirrel could enter your home, then you may be more prone to a squirrel problem. Squirrels tend to come inside in the fall and winter months to keep warm and safe. Attics and garages tend to offer both of those amenities. More likely than not, squirrels are simply looking for a place to nest to keep their young as safe. Outside, they are attracted to bird feeders, trash bins, and fallen food (i.e. berries, acorns, nuts or birdseed).
Squirrel infestations left untreated can cause problems for your house and the health of your family. If they are living in your house then they are leaving droppings and urine as well. Both the urine and droppings of any species of animal are cause for concern and as they can carry many diseases. Squirrels are also known flea and tick carriers. One squirrel can have 5 babies every 6 months. It is best to call us to evict the squirrels from your home before any squirrel problems begin.
What a great experience I had. It's been a long fight with bugs. The technician listened to my issues and resolved them all. They should have him cloned. He was an expert and went over things with me. He gave me peace of mind that he would take care of each problem that I had. This is the guy to go to. Thanks for taking care of things.
What a wonderful company! They were out the following day to help us. The technician was amazing. He walked us through each part of the procedure. I will be staying with them.
I had a stink bug infestation and they came out that afternoon to treat. The technicians are well trained, efficient and friendly. They will be my go-to company for bug issues.
The technician addressed all my concerns and obviously knew his work well. I will refer other people to them.
From the get go, the technician properly intoduced himself, and went over the treatment plan with me. After the treatment he explained to me his findings and the areas that need repair to avoid problems in the future.
The rep was relentless in making sure that my ground bees nest problem was taken care of. Job well done.
In the past few years that I've had Presto-X, I have had good reps and then I have had really good reps. They were quite knowledgeable about pest control, and they come out within a couple of days after calling to schedule an appointment. And for a pretty affordable price, I haven't seen ants in my home ever since. Without a doubt, I would recommend Presto-X to friends and family in a heartbeat.
Presto-X successfully got rid of the ants!
After the initial treatment, I can say that I am quite satisfied with Presto-X, what with their very pleasant reps and extremely thorough treatment procedure.
