Primarily nocturnal, flying squirrels are most active during the late evenings and throughout the night. During their nesting phases, especially when raising their young, they frequently seek shelter in attics, barns, or sheds. Their sharp, constantly growing teeth necessitate regular chewing, leading them to wires and cables in homes. This behavior, while natural for them, can lead to potential fire risks, trampled insulation, and contamination from their droppings. Moreover, when they are trapped inside your home, their panic can result in additional damages to your home and property.
While gray squirrels are day roamers, their aerial counterparts, the flying squirrels, come alive at night. Homeowners in Peachtree City, Fayetteville, Newnan, and other south metro areas frequently report mysterious nocturnal noises, a telltale sign of flying squirrels in attics. Their unique ability to glide between trees seamlessly transitions into sneaky maneuvers within homes. While their night adventures are awe-inspiring in the wild, in homes, they pose similar challenges as the gray squirrels, including chewed electrical fixtures and infrastructure damage. WEBBCON Wildlife Removal is here to address these nighttime nuisances effectively and humanely.
