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.
We live near the woods and we had a very bad tick problem. We also had seasonal issues with mice and wasps. It got to the point where we were considering leaving the house. After a few weeks of signing up with Presto-X, our issues were resolved. And I can call them back out anytime I see new activity starting up again. It's amazing how much of a decrease it has been! Every technician has been well mannered, considerate and professional. One tech in particular is great with my kids and our dog. I highly recommend them!
I was a little panicky when I called in the morning because my two-year-old was stung by yellow jackets. The office rep was personable and went over the program options with me. He set up an appointment for later that afternoon. The tech that he sent was very prompt, thorough, and really helped to calm the nerves of an agitated mother! Effective treatment and fantastic customer service as well! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
We moved into a new home that we really adore. Since the house is old, the bugs and the rodents infested the place. Out of the five exterminating companies we sought help from, Presto-X is the most effective and reasonably priced. Also, our technician is so great because of his thoroughness and friendliness!
Thank you to the Presto-X rep who did an excellent job!
Because we live in a new construction, our pest problem only grows worse especially with the warm weather. It's a good thing Presto-X sent their rep as fast as they could to immediately do treatment without missing a single nook or cranny. The rep not only did an excellent job but had time to spare to treat our neighbors. Highly recommended!
The rep who came out to treat my home obviously knew what he was doing and was very accommodating (i.e., he answered all my questions). I am very happy with Presto-X and would recommend them to anyone who wants professional service and a job well done!
I learned so much about pests and how to treat them from Presto-X's reps who explained everything in painstaking detail and answered all my questions to my great satisfaction.
Amazing service!
Our rep was simply a pleasure to work with.
