Question:

What can one do when a family of squirrels has nested under the roof, endangering the electrical wires?

I love squirrels, but they nibble at everything, which includes the electrical wires. I don?t want to cause them any harm but is there a way to make them go away? I tried to make it difficult to climb up the house but they are experts at it

Answer:

Charge themRental Insurance Rent PGE Bill LOL! Got to get them ALL out first!in Morning Best! by baiting them w/Nuts, Seeds Peanut butter Yum!Alot of banging to scare em a lil too but have to do it so they feel ok to exit there enterance. Close off enterance wood etc. then say. Sorry lil Nut Packers Find another Nut House!!!!
get to the grain and feed store, get ya some fox piss, put some on a towel and dab the towel around works like a charm. Since foxes are natural predators to squirrels they will stay away from the urine.
Try Mothballs the keep mice out it myth Work with Squirrels
I think the danger is to the squirrels and not the electrical wires. You will have to set one or more traps and haul the rats with bushy tails away to a nearby park or someone on the other side of town you dislike, and release them so they can't find their way back.
You better get at it. Winter is coming and they are looking for suitable lodgings. Board up the entrance if you can find it. Otherwise they will breed in your attic and then they are like homing pidgeons. They will stay. They are tree rats.
