Squirrels — Control & Prevention in Metro Atlanta & North Georgia
That early-morning scampering overhead is one of the most common wildlife calls we get. Gray squirrels and flying squirrels love North Georgia attics — warm, dry, and safe from predators — and they'll chew straight through fascia boards, gable vents, and shingles to move in. Once inside, they gnaw wiring, flatten insulation, and raise litters that turn one squirrel into a colony.
Forsyth Exterminating removes squirrels humanely and, more importantly, keeps them from coming back: we seal and reinforce every vulnerable entry point with chew-resistant materials, backed by our warranty.
Signs You Have a Squirrel Problem
- Scampering or rolling sounds in the attic, mornings and dusk
- Chewed fascia boards, vents, or roofline gaps
- Nesting material and droppings in the attic
- Squirrels routinely on the roof or power lines
How We Solve It
Roofline inspection
We locate active entry holes and the chewed, vulnerable spots squirrels target next.
Humane removal
One-way doors and targeted trapping get squirrels out without harming them or orphaning litters.
Chew-proof exclusion
Entry points are repaired and reinforced with materials squirrels can't gnaw through.
Attic restoration
We can address contaminated or flattened insulation — see our insulation services — and warranty the exclusion.
Keep Them From Coming Back
- Trim branches at least 6 feet from the roof
- Screen gable and ridge vents with heavy-gauge mesh
- Replace soft, rotting fascia boards
- Avoid feeding wildlife near the house

Squirrels FAQs
Can't I just trap the squirrel myself?
Georgia regulates wildlife trapping and relocation, and removing one squirrel doesn't stop the next from using the same hole. Licensed removal plus exclusion solves it permanently.
What if there are babies in the attic?
Our technicians check for litters and time removal so mothers and young leave together — humane and effective.
Do squirrels really cause fires?
Chewed wiring is a documented fire risk, and squirrels gnaw constantly to wear down their teeth. It's the biggest reason not to wait on an attic squirrel problem.
