Common Emergency Scenarios

Squirrel in the House

This is our most common emergency call. A squirrel may fall down a chimney, come through an open door, or find its way from the attic into living spaces. We'll safely capture and remove the animal, then identify how it got in.

Electrical Fire Risk

Squirrels chewing on electrical wires is extremely dangerous. If you smell burning, see sparks, or hear unusual electrical sounds, call us immediately. We'll work with you to safely address the wildlife issue while you contact an electrician.

Mother with Babies

If you discover a mother squirrel with babies in your attic during baby season (February-April or August-September), this requires careful handling. We use humane methods to reunite the family outside your home.

Sick or Injured Squirrel

A squirrel acting strangely, moving slowly, or appearing injured needs professional handling. We'll safely remove the animal and can coordinate with wildlife rehabilitators if appropriate.

What to Do While You Wait

If you've called for emergency service, here's what to do while waiting for us to arrive:

• Keep Distance: Don't corner or try to catch the animal yourself.
• Contain if Possible: If the squirrel is in one room, close the door to contain it.
• Protect Pets: Keep dogs and cats away from the area.
• Open Exit Routes: If safe, open windows or doors to give the squirrel an escape route.
• Turn Off Electricity: If there's an electrical hazard, turn off power to that area at the breaker.
