In this video, Marcus from Skedaddle Wildlife Control performs a squirrel removal assessment in Shorewood, Wisconsin, uncovering how squirrels were accessing the home and causing damage near the roofline.
The inspection begins at the gutters, which were equipped with gutter guards. While the guards were intact, there was no evidence they were being actively used by squirrels. The assessment continued downward, where Marcus identified a key issue: the brick style and downspout design made it easy for squirrels to climb straight up the exterior of the home.
Squirrels were using the edge of the brick to scale the wall, then reaching over the gutter to access the roof. Staining on the downspout revealed repeated activity, caused by squirrels dragging their bellies over the same spot again and again.
The inspection ultimately revealed a clear squirrel entry point, including:
A pulled-down soffit
Chewed and damaged wood
Direct access into the attic space
With the entry point confirmed, a team of Skedaddle technicians will be sent out to humanely remove the squirrels and fully wildlife-proof the home to prevent future intrusions. All exclusion work is backed by Skedaddle’s lifetime guarantee.
If you’re hearing noises in your attic or suspect squirrels are getting into your home, don’t wait! Professional assessment and exclusion is key to preventing long-term damage.
