North Dakota's cold winters are a primary driver for squirrel activity in homes. As temperatures drop, squirrels actively seek insulated spaces. This often means they will chew through soffits, fascia boards, and vent screens to gain entry into attics and wall cavities in houses and other structures. Our process begins with a thorough inspection to locate entry points and nesting areas. We then employ humane exclusion methods to remove the squirrels and seal off access, preventing future intrusions. The type of housing stock, from older farmhouses to newer construction, influences the specific entry points squirrels utilize.
Common questions
Is there a fee for calling animal control?
There is no fee for contacting us to discuss your animal control needs. We provide a free phone quote to assess the situation. The cost of removal or exclusion depends on the type of animal and the complexity of the job, such as the number of entry points or the extent of the infestation.
What is the 3-3-3 rule for animals?
The 3-3-3 rule is not a standard guideline in wildlife control. It may refer to a dog's adjustment period in a new home. For wildlife, our approach focuses on identifying the specific species, their behavior patterns, and the best methods for humane removal and prevention based on scientific observation.

What are common squirrel entry points in North Dakota homes?
