Squirrels Hiding Out in the Chimney in Lanoka Harbor, NJ
This customer in Lanoka Harbor, NJ had squirrels harboring in his chimney. How did he know? He spotted one roaming around his fireplace! Fortunately, it didn't get inside his home. He contacted Little Rascals for help and we were sent out.
Since the squirrels were getting in via the chimney, we set up a one-way device over the top of it and temporarily enclosed the area off with hardware cloth. We then installed several baited devices nearby. The one-way device will allow the squirrels to leave the chimney safely while also preventing them from getting back in. A short while after setting up our devices, we successfully retrieved all of the squirrels and took them to a safer location.
To prevent any future nuisance wildlife or even bird infestations, we installed a chimney cap. This heavy-duty material is constructed out of 24 Gauge Top and Flange, and 18 Gauge Galvanized Mesh and is designed to prevent access to the chimney from all nuisance wildlife, bats, and birds.
