Photo Album: Squirrels Getting Under the Chimney in Princeton, NJ
This homeowner in Princeton Junction, NJ, suspected that he had a squirrel roaming around on his roof, so he called Little Rascals to come out and inspect.
Chimney Gap
Upon inspection, we found prints and squirrel hair in a small gap in the chimney cap.
Squirrel!
If that wasn't enough evidence, there was an actual squirrel that was around the corner!
Only One Way
We temporarily enclosed the area off with hardware cloth and installed a one-way device over the main access point. A one-way is designed to allow the squirrel to safely exit the area and prevent it from getting back in.
Several Baited Devices
We also set up several baited devices in the vicinity of the squirrels.
Soon...
Once we safely retrieve the squirrels, we will relocate them to a new humane environment, disinfect the area, and repair the gaps per code.
