Photo Album: Squirrel Damage in Perth Amboy, NJ Home
Think squirrels are cute harmless little animals? Think again. This home in Perth Amboy, NJ had one of the more damaging squirrel infestations that I have ever come across, and I’ve been trapping and relocating wildlife for well over a decade. Squirrels, with their “cirque du soileil” acrobatic and aerial ability, can easily access roofs from overhanging tree branches or balancing across phone lines. Once on the roof, they sometimes find a way to find entry into the attic, often through damaged roof tiles, fascia boards, or soffits.
With this home in Perth Amboy, NJ, however, the squirrels weren't limiting themselves to just accessing the attic space. They were brazen enough to make themselves at home right in the kitchen, where they were able to enter through a wall void.
