Squirrel Removal Portland OR

Getting Rid of Squirrels

Squirrel removal from Portland attics is an increasing issue. Folks may not realize that invasive Eastern gray squirrels and fox squirrels have pushed out Portland’s native tree squirrel species. Because they’re more aggressive, and reproduce faster…

Why Does Portland Need Squirrel Control?

Now invasive squirrels compete amongst themselves for limited available habitat. This same aggressive behavior and competition is what causes invasive squirrels to chew their way into your attic and start causing damage.

Squirrels can foul insulation, damage electrical wiring, increase risk of fire, and chew through solid wood & drywall. Their entry points create access for starlings, pigeons and roof rats.

How much does it cost to remove a squirrel from the attic?

It depends on how many squirrels & the situation, but a typical residential Portland squirrel removal service ranges from the low end of $328 to $794, plus the cost of exclusion. A typical squirrel colony consists of 4-7 members (1-2 adults and 3+ offspring). If your squirrel control professional is charging per trip, make sure that multiple traps are being set for the best value.
